The learning doesn’t stop in the summer.

Each year, DASH Academy students continue their artistic journeys at outstanding summer intensive programs across the country and around the world—immersing themselves in new creative environments, learning from inspiring artists, and returning home with fresh perspective.

Over the years, our students have earned acceptances and scholarships to programs including NOD (Italy), John Cranko School, UNCSA, Movement Invention Project, Arts Umbrella, Ballet Hispánico, Alonzo King LINES Ballet, Complexions Contemporary Ballet, Hubbard Street Dance Chicago, Alvin Ailey Summer Intensive, American Dance Festival, Joffrey Ballet School, Peridance, Orsolina28, BODYTRAFFIC, Earl Mosley’s Intensive for the Arts and more.

We’re proud of every student who chooses to keep learning, keep growing, and keep investing in their artistry. We can’t wait to see all they’ll bring back to the studio this fall.

At DASH Academy, performance is an essential part of the learning process.

Each winter and spring, students present a collection of works created and staged by professional guest choreographers alongside original student choreography developed throughout the academic year.

These performances offer students the opportunity to engage deeply with creative process, repertory, collaboration, and artistic practice while bringing their work to the stage.

A few moments from our Spring Concert featuring works by Christopher Ralph, Jesse Obremski, Gregory Dolbashian, a staging of José Limón’s Psalm, and three student-created works.

A glimpse into our recent NYC Academy Trip. 🖤
This clip features DASH Academy students taking class in founder Gregory Dolbashian’s Spotlight Series class at Steps on Broadway during an unforgettable week of training, exploration, and connection in New York City.
This spring marked our second Academy trip to NYC, where students trained at some of the city’s leading studios, attended performances and rehearsal previews, connected with artists and educators, and experienced firsthand what life in the professional dance world can look like.
Through the professional networks of our founders and guest faculty, we’re grateful to provide access to opportunities that help expand our students’ training, perspective, and community.
The classes are valuable, but the relationships, experiences, and memories built along the way are what make these trips so special.

To our faculty, staff, choreographers, guest artists, and collaborators — thank you for your artistry, mentorship, generosity, and endless dedication throughout this season. This work would not exist without you. 🤍

And to our students — thank you for your discipline, courage, vulnerability, passion, and commitment every single day in the studio and on the stage. Watching your growth this year has been an honor. 🌟

A special celebration to our graduating seniors on their final DASH Academy performance and this exciting next chapter ahead. Your impact on this community is lasting, and we are endlessly proud of you. 🎓🖤

POV: you just opened a box and realized you’re about to wear a piece of dance history.

These costumes came directly from the José Limón Dance Foundation for our students’ performance of Psalm—the same pieces worn on stage by company members.

Past meets present in real time.
