PROFESSIONAL SUMMER INTENSIVE
Red Clay Dance Company’s Pro Summer Intensive is an inclusive space that welcomes dancers ages 18-30 of all backgrounds. Our training is rooted in African diasporic dance vocabulary; a guiding foundational practice. Join us for a week of technique classes led by Chicago-based artists, masterclasses taught by our touring company members, repertory work that explores our unique creative process, and a culminating informal showing!
We support professional artists in expanding their creative landscape through an introduction to our Artivism practice, experiencing the diverse class offerings of Chicago-based artists, and exploring and deepening their creative process.
