Participants have the opportunity to study a variety of dance styles, including: ballet, Latin jazz, various modern techniques, Irish, salsa, flamenco, African, Indian, Gypsy, Syrian, hip hop, break-dancing, dramatic pantomime, yoga, Tai Chi, and many others.
Because most of the classes are offered from beginning through advanced levels, this festival is perfect for anyone wishing to expand their dance repertoire, try something new, improve certain areas, or try dance for the very first time.
