World Dance Celebration at Ailey Extension brings communities together to share rich cultural heritages from around the world.
During this 8-week performance workshop, students will receive individual attention in rehearsals while learning original choreography from Ailey instructors that will culminate in full performances at the Ailey Citigroup Theater. In a nurturing and non-judgmental environment, students will become more confident dancers while improving their performance quality and enhancing their freedom of expression.
Technique options include African-Brazilian, Afro-Cuban, Afro'Dance, Salsa, Samba, NY Style Mambo, and West African.
