What Defines Summer Dance Lab
Rigorous training and a multifaceted dance experience are the hallmarks of the Summer Dance Lab program. One that combines indepth learning and performance with creative development, promoting a sense of enjoyment within a supportive community comprised of other aspiring students, guided by a deeply experienced faculty and staff attuned to their needs.
"I felt proud to show off what SDL had made me..." SDL Alum, Erin Kalb
SDL is a pre-professional intensive program focused on developing well-rounded dancers who have the proper depth of training and experience. SDL will prepare dancers for a sustained career with the tools that will enable them to meet the demands of an ever-changing dance world.
Summer Intensive Auditions
Please visit the Audition Tour page for information on the cities and studios we will visit in our summer Audition Tour.
We prefer to place students through in-person auditions, but the program does accept online video submissions. Find out more about online submissions in our Online Audition Guidelines.
To learn more about the application process please visit the Application Forms page.
If you're ready to begin the process, download the Audition Application and send in your application!
