Becoming a great artist requires experiences that hone your art, and relationships that enrich your career. At the Pillow, you will interact with dance artists who have made lasting contributions to the field. In the studio, renowned faculty teach classes small enough for individual coaching and create an environment that prepares you for the demands of a professional company. Outside the studio, you are immersed in the artistic community of the international Festival. This intense and thrilling mix creates a life-changing experience for the dancer who is ready for professional advancement.
Please let me know if I can be of help as you apply. I look forward to welcoming you to the Pillow.
