Join us for our immersive choreography camp led by Wellspring’s Artistic Director, Marisa Bianan ✨

Each day, we’ll dive into a different choreographic element, such as time, space, dynamics, and lighting/production! 🎭

Camp attendees will customize their own journal on Day 1 to keep throughout the camp to log their choreography and new knowledge. Each day will conclude with time for the dancers to set choreography as an individual, and as a group.

Our last day will feature Technical Director, Sam Snow. Sam works with the students to light their newly created works to present on the last day of camp. Dancers will also receive a video copy of their performance 📽
