Intensive Class Schedule

PDI student schedules are curated by the Director of Education to create an individual experience that will allow for rigorous training, artistic growth, and community connection. Students will be placed in a class pod that will learn, train, and grow together during the two-week intensive. Students will take classes in African dance forms, ballet, composition, dance film, hip-hop, modern, and repertory Monday–Friday. Evening and weekend activities will include attending ADF performances, taking master classes, and participating in community activities with their fellow students and dorm counselors.

The ADF performance season features an international roster of dance companies ranging from long established to cutting edge. You will receive a complimentary ticket to most performances held during the intensive dates.
