The Graham School is the oldest professional school of dance in the United States and the only one primarily focused on the Martha Graham Technique and repertory.
Classes are taught by faculty who are current or former members of the Martha Graham Dance Company, and who trained with Martha Graham herself or with her first-generation acolytes.
Dancers studying at the Graham School have moved on to professional dance careers with the Martha Graham Dance Company, Paul Taylor Dance Company, Jose Limón Dance Company, Buglisi Dance Theatre, and the Battery Dance Company, as well as on Broadway and with other companies across the world.
Join us in our new Times Square Dance Center this fall!
The acclaimed Martha Graham School is now registering pre-professional (ages 4-17) and professional (18 and up) students for the fall semester.
We offer classes in the Graham Technique, Ballet, Contemporary and more in six state-of-the-art studios. Whether you are just beginning your dance journey or building your professional career, you are welcome!
