Summer Programs

Registration is now open for RESILIENCE’s Summer Programming! Explore the three exciting programs RDC is offering this season below.

 

Each Summer, RESILIENCE Dance Company hosts multiple, week-long summer programs designed for middle and high school students. Programs are designed to foster growth in an environment that is both rigorous and nurturing, to expand students' technical and artistic experiences, and to equip dancers with pre-professional resources including workshops in injury prevention, mental health and dance, resume building, and more.

Pre-Professional Intensive

*Audition Required

This 6-day intensive helps pre-professional dancers refine their technique in contemporary, ballet, floorwork, and improvisation. Students will also join professional development Q&As, injury-prevention workshops, and have the chance to learn and perform company repertoire. ​

Testimonials

Audra Bravard

Summer Intensive Parent (2025)

As a hypermobile dancer self-care, mental health, and injury prevention are important aspects that my dancer may not see as important now. What she learned during your program taught her skills that she can develop well into her dance career.
