• Floor work with Joe Cyranski Take this highly physical, athletic class that focuses on how the distribution of weight between ground, body and space impact dance technique.

• Improvisation with Emerson Earnshaw Grab a chance to discover new pathways to making improvisation a viable tool in auditions and the choreographic process.
