Mission Statement

Luminary Dance Project/ Intensive Programs are designed to provide dancers with a comprehensive artistic education while honing ones’ technique. Our belief is that providing a safe environment where students can experiment and push the boundaries of their dancing leads to incredible growth and great self-discovery.  We strive to instill lessons that can be 

used life long whether pursuing a career in dance or not. The goal is to train dancers that are disciplined, dedicated, and dance with a generosity of spirit. 

Pre - Professional

The Pre-Professional Program was created for dancers striving to pursue a career in dance.  Students will be challenged technically and encouraged to expand their artistry while honing their skills.  Classes will stress alignment, technique and taking risks as an artist as well as collaboration.
