Boston Ballet – Summer Intensive

Boston Ballet School’s Summer Dance Program (SDP) offers an unparalleled experience for serious-minded, high-level ballet students between the ages of 12 and 18. Each summer, students from around the world are drawn to SDP to immerse themselves in a professional training environment. Under the instruction of an internationally renowned faculty, and alongside a community of like-minded peers, students will develop their passion for ballet while expanding their capabilities as dancers, artists, and performers.

Working with world-renowned faculty in one of our two state-of-the-art studios—located in Boston’s South End and Newton, Massachusetts—students have the opportunity to grow tremendously as both dancers and artists. While Summer Dance Program maintains a strong focus on classical ballet technique, such that it represents over half of a student’s training hours, the curriculum also explores a broader spectrum of dance styles. As the dance industry continues to develop, this expanded dance vocabulary becomes increasingly important.
