Program Information

This summer, challenge your body and develop greater control by attending ICSB's Classical Variations Intensive. Students are emboldened to get out of their comfort zone and express themselves as artists with a spotlight on the art of the classical variation. Our world-class faculty specializes in providing frequent and personally tailored corrections to every student in the classroom. Their persistence and attention to detail will leave a lasting impression on your dancer's training.

ICSB has intentionally designed this program for dancers who desire to pursue a career within the dance field. It will allow dancers to immerse themselves in a rigorous and inspiring training environment. In tandem with the Classical Variation studies, our award-winning daily technique classes will push you to identify and utilize your strengths while improving upon weaknesses to successfully and safely execute any variation in the standard repertoire.

The ICSB Classical Variations Intensive is open to students ages 11 to 20 and is a comprehensive program for intermediate to advanced-level students. Acceptance into the program is via audition only. Levels within the intensive will depend on a combination of age and merit. Level placement is at the discretion of the directors.

Acceptance & Enrollment Process

Students interested in applying for ICSB’s Classical Variations Intensive program may complete the Classical Variations Intensive Application E-Form. All applicants will be asked to submit a video sample of a Classical Variation performance or rehearsal footage via a Youtube/Vimeo/DropBox or Google Drive link that will accurately showcase the applicant’s present technical capabilities. Please have your video link ready to complete the Application E-Form (see below). Please ensure your video's privacy settings allow us to view it - use settings such as "public" or "unlisted."

Accepted students will receive an acceptance letter via the primary email address in your completed Registration E-Form. Your acceptance letter will contain initial enrollment information, including fees and payment deadlines. Once received, accepted students should confirm attendance within two weeks of acceptance and will be required to submit the necessary documents.

We strongly recommend that students interested in being considered for the Year-Round program attend our summer sessions at ICSB. The summer sessions can accurately assess a student’s fit for the Year-Round program and ultimately be considered an integral part of the faculty’s evaluation. Invitations to the Academic Year program are on an individual basis.
