TRAIN | CREATE | GROW

Thodos Dance Chicago’s summer intensives offer a unique training experience designed to help dancers reach their highest potential through individualized instruction from TDC’s Founder and Artistic Director, Melissa Thodos, and TDC Alumni. Click here for a full list of this year's instructors!

 

Intensive Highlight: Dancers explore composition by CREATING a solo work over the course of the Intensive with guidance and support from TDC. Each dancer will be given digital video of their new work to use for audition and application purposes.
