Coastal Dance Centre | Summer Intensive

Summer Intensives 2009

For students who have the goal of achieving a high quality dance education, Coastal Dance Centre's Summer Intensive offers an excellent program that is unparalleled
in the Grand Strand area.

The curriculum puts emphasis on Ballet Technique, and includes classes in Pointe, Variation, Tap, Modern, Repertoire, Drama, Rehearsals and Conditioning for
Dancers,

Our classes are small which allow for our students to receive personalized attention from our regular faculty and a line-up of outstanding guest teachers for the
duration of the Summer Intensive Program.

And since it is summer time and with Coastal Dance Centre's close proximity to the beaches of the Grand Strand, students get to enjoy and have summer fun and frolic
with their families at the Beach. (And not have to go to out-of- state dance programs and not spend on travel and accommodation too!)
