Parsons Dance
The Parsons Dance Company offers a summer
intensive to aspiring professional dancers. It is a three
week program that includes Parsons Dance repertory and
technique, ballet, professional developmental seminars, an
actual audition for David Parsons, and a finale
performance. There is also a fourth week which is a master
choreography workshop. It allows students to take part in
the developmental process for David Parsons' next
choreographic work.
The three weeks I spent during the Parsons Dance Intensive
was the best time of my life. The amount I learned from
all of the company members and David Parsons was
incredible. They not only enhanced my knowledge of dance,
but they opened the performance door for me. The most
influential thing I learned while at Parsons was that in
order to get to where I strive to be, I must perform every
day as if I am on stage. That will set me apart from other
dancers auditioning for the same job. All in all, I gained
so much at this intensive and plan on returning this
coming summer as well.
If you think you would like something like this, or known
someone who would, see for yourself!
