OUR CLASSES

Graham Technique – Open Level
The Martha Graham Technique is based on the core power of Graham’s signature contraction and release. The Technique promotes strength, stamina, and self-expression and serves as a foundation for excellence in many styles of dance.

Ballet – Open Level
Ballet training at the Graham School is adapted for individual student abilities. Classes are structured to enhance and support the study of the Martha Graham Technique.

Body Mindfulness – Open Level
To supplement and enhance dancers’ technical training, the Body Mindfulness program offers a rotation of conditioning classes in yoga, pilates, gyrotonics, and crosstraining.

Graham Repertory – Open Level / Package B Only
Session 1: July 5 – 16 / Session 2: July 19 – 30
Repertory introduces students to Graham’s classic choreography to gain a deeper understanding of her expressive style as well as practice in valuable performance techniques.

Composition – Open Level / Package B Only
Session 1: July 5 – 16 / Session 2: July 19 – 30
This exploration of dance-making guides students in creating movement phrases, discovering their own artistic voice, and developing a personal toolbox of choreographic techniques using Graham repertory as a source of inspiration.
