The dance world doesn’t stand still, continuously demanding more and more versatility and fluency in multiple styles of movement. Particularly for those on a pre-professional track, it’s crucial to build a wide range of experience, even as they continue to acquire their foundational skills.

Artists in the Series have included Jessica Lang Dance, Parsons Dance, Alonzo King LINES Ballet, Complexions Contemporary Ballet, Shanghai Ballet, Body Traffic, Les Ballets Jazz de Montréal, MOMIX, and Shen Wei Dance Arts. Thus are the rhythms and steps of the world’s
major stages picked up by the emerging dancers of Metro Detroit. Recall that Sonya Tayeh, of ‘So You Think You Can Dance’ and now a sought-after Broadway choreographer, emerged from Detroit’s creative dance pipeline. We love you Sonya!
