For 16 years COMPLEXIONS CONTEMPORARY BALLET has been bringing it’s own unique brand of contemporary choreography and technique to the stage.
Now, a Summer Intensive Program has been developed at the renowned company, with the specific aim of making the COMPLETE DANCER from head-to-toe.
PRECISION, PHYSICALITY, EXPRESSION, and VERSATILITY - these are a handful of the vital descriptive words - often used to describe the intrinsic nature of the programs at COMPLEXIONS.
According to the faculty, complexions now seeks dancers that are not limited by his/her training but liberated by it, for the upcoming August semester in New York City.
It should be underscored that CCB Summer Intensive instructs its students like no other.
It guides dancers to achieve their full artistic potential in the unique and exclusive style of Complexions Contemporary Ballet.
Students are taught the Complexions technique through classroom exercises and company repertoire instruction.
Participants experience techniques designed to cultivate and develop strong, well-trained, dancers who are educated to perform more skillfully and creatively.
The Summer Intensive offers three programs, and each program is designed for students who have a solid ballet and modern base, who are looking to take their technique to the next level.
