Wasatch Workshops offer an opportunity for adult dancers (17 years+) of all levels and abilities to come together to celebrate dance under the same roof. Participants can take classes in beginning, intermediate and advanced ballet, jazz, and contemporary. New this year, the workshop will also include an injury prevention class and composition/improvisation for all levels. These workshops, offered twice a year, provide opportunities for:
1) Adults who have never tried dance before to have a safe and fun environment in which to be exposed to ballet, jazz and contemporary technique, taught by Wasatch Contemporary Dance Company’s professional dancers. The beginning level workshop is perfect for community members who want to try dance for the first time.
2) Adults who have danced in the past who have taken a break and are coming back into the dance scene. The Intermediate level workshop is perfect for dancers looking for a refresher course in ballet, jazz and contemporary technique, taught by Wasatch Contemporary Dance Company’s professional dancers.
3) Advanced and professional level dancers to continue to hone their ballet and contemporary technique while learning from incredible guest teachers alongside members of WCDC and Wasatch II. The advanced level workshop is designed for dancers who have danced continuously in high school and/or college with no or little break, or who have gone on to dance/teach professionally post-graduation.
Class sizes are limited to assure students receive the best experience. Options available to attend full day or just individual classes.

See what participants are saying about Wasatch Workshops:
“Thank you for your time and talents. I wish I could dance more, so having this opportunity to just be reminded of the basics and having a good time with other dancers is so enjoyable. Thank you for keeping me motivated to take care of my body, and connected to my soul. Movement and dance have always been my native language.”
