Why is a winter ballet intensive just as important as a summer ballet intensive?

"I think it can be a jolt of inspiration before going into audition season and a way to keep technique improving when normally there are no classes during holiday breaks." -- Avant Chamber Ballet’s Artistic Director Katie Puder, December 2018

It's hard to believe the season of autumn will be coming to an end in less than a month from now.

Summer ballet intensive sessions are common in the ballet world, but during the winter time, you'll find some ballet dancers and danseurs who will make the decision to step it up a notch by registering for a winter intensive session.

Below is a list of winter ballet intensive sessions that are taking place December 2019-January 2020 in the southern region of the United States. Take a moment to see which program is closest to your city!
