Schedule, Classes, & Faculty (SDI)

Intensive Class Schedule

Full-time students choose three classes per day to attend: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday for the four-week intensive. Part-time students choose one class per day to attend. Every Wednesday, Friday evening, Saturday, and Sunday (also known as WFSS), there are drop-in classes, masterclasses with performing companies, and workshops that allow you to add complexity to your regular schedule and experience different teachers.

Class Registration

Students must register for their block classes through the online application before arriving at the festival. Class registration opens online on March 20, 2025. Registration is completed on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Repertory

ADF Repertory classes provide students with a chance to explore the creative and rehearsal process with ADF faculty members. All repertory classes will perform at the SDI Informal Showing. All full-time ADF students can audition for repertory classes on the Opening Weekend of SDI.

Classes & Faculty

Full-time students choose three classes to attend Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday for the four-week intensive. Part-time students choose one class to attend. Every Wednesday, Friday evening, Saturday, and Sunday (also known as WFSS), there are drop-in classes, masterclasses with performing companies, and workshops that allow you to add complexity to your regular schedule and experience different teachers.

Once registration is finalized at the top of SDI’s first week, students are committed to their confirmed schedule. The evening and weekend drop-in schedule provides ample opportunity to take class from the full ADF faculty roster, as well as guest artists and visiting performing companies.
