PRE-PROFESSIONAL INTENSIVE 2025
June 23rd - July 18th​
​
Monday–Friday, 9:30AM–1:30PM
Artistic Directors Meridith Benson & Mario de la Nuez lead the group of world-class instructors that make de la’s intensive a great experience in the art of dance. Our goal is to help foster the physical, technical, mental, emotional and artistic development of all students in small classes with plenty of individual attention. Classes are taught by de la Directors and Staff, as well as select members of the company and guest faculty. This program is geared toward the serious dancer who needs a great training ground but desires smaller class sizes, personal attention, and a variety of dance forms. de la offers a unique blend of excellent training in a nurturing environment. We meet each individual dancer where they are. With two classes per day, this intensive promises to be a strategic tool for young pre-professional dancers to reach their goals as America's future artists.
