Southern New Hampshire Dance Theater offers a variety of evening classes in ballet, modern, jazz, and conditioning during the month of July, including adult and pre-school classes. Registration is recommended in advance. Students may participate in classes for the entire month or may "drop-in" as available. The class schedule is usually based loosely on the regular school year schedule.  This program is designed to offer students ages 10 and up the opportunity to pursue their dance education and training on a daily basis for two weeks. Students will receive a daily ballet class along with additional classes in modern dance, jazz, conditioning, character dance, injury prevention and dance history. Additional classes for those who qualify include pointe, variations, men's class and pas de deux. All levels meet Monday through Saturday, with a minimum of three classes each day. Emphasized at all levels is the process of learning and developing skills both artistically and technically. Various guest artists are often brought in throughout the two-week period. No audition is required for the Two-Week Summer Intensive. Applications are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Students are placed into levels based on age and ability. For the convenience of those who are unable to attend two weeks, the option to attend one week is made available.  This program is designed for the beginner and intermediate dancer ages 8-12 as an introduction to more serious dance training. Previous dance training is required for this program.
