Valencia is pleased to announce our 12th annual summer dance program beginning June 18, 2012 and culminating July 14, 2012! This four week program is designed to provide quality dance instruction for 15-20 dancers who work with Valencia College and guest personnel in the area of dance and costumes. For no direct cost to students except for lunch and transportation to the campus, rising 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th grade high school students will participate in the development of dance, performance practices, cooperative learning, communication skills, work with various artists in the fields of dance and the opportunity to demonstrate acquired skills in these areas. This program will utilize all aspects of a dance performance: classroom instruction in various dance techniques, instruction in classroom and rehearsal etiquette and the culmination of a jointly produced (dancers and instructors) dance concert at the end of the students four week tenure. What’s the Cost? Students provide transportation to and from Valencia each day, and need to bring their own lunches and necessary dance and technical supplies.
