Our Intensives Include

Expert Faculty

Dancers will grow artistically during the CVDA Intensive with the help of our expert faculty. Our guest artists introduce our students to new techniques and enhance their repertoire. The faculty for this intensive includes some of the region's most highly-regarded dance educators and choreographers, who will provide dancers with guidance, support, and encouragement throughout the intensive.

New Choreography

Our instructors are known for their innovative choreography and dynamic movement phrases that challenge and inspire dancers to push beyond their limits. Their choreography and movement phrases are designed to push dancers to new heights, helping them develop their technical skills and expressiveness. You'll be challenged to explore new ways of moving, experiment with different dynamics and textures, and develop your own artistic voice as a performer.

Individualized Attention

We understand the importance of individualized attention and growth in a dancer's journey. That's why, to maximize your training experience, we've divided our students based on grade, in the current school year, and ability into three Intensive groups. This allows dancers to receive direct feedback from our renowned guest instructors, ensuring your dance education is tailored to your specific needs and goals.
