A look at Week 2 of CIDE Summer Intensive so far! ✨

From technique classes and rehearsals to pas de deux class and new challenges in the studio, our dancers continue to push themselves each day while growing in confidence, artistry, and strength.

We’re so proud of their dedication and love watching them make the most of every opportunity. We can’t wait to see all they accomplish during the final days of the intensive. 🩰

Halfway through Week 1 of CIDE Summer Intensive, and our dancers are making every moment count. ✨

This week has been filled with inspiring classes from guest faculty Alecia Good-Boresow and Mark-David Bloodgood, and CIDE Artistic Staff, and exciting choreography sessions with Eva Stone via Zoom! 🤩

We’re grateful for the opportunity to learn from such talented artists and can’t wait to continue growing together over the next week and a half. 🩰

We spent last week making waves at CIAoD’s Under the Sea Dance Camp! 🌊🐠

A week full of ocean adventures, dancing, creativity, and imagination brought the magic of life beneath the waves to the studio. From dance classes and games to crafts and new friendships, our dancers dove into every moment with enthusiasm and joy.

Thank you to all of our campers for making it such a fintastic week! We loved every minute and are looking forward to welcoming more dancers to the studio for the rest of our summer camps and classes. 🐚✨
