Shaping Artists: CPYB’s Summer Repertory Intensive
The Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet (CPYB) Summer Repertory Intensive offers a unique opportunity for selected dancers to immerse themselves in the transformation from student to artist.
In just two weeks, participants will acquire the skills of learning new works, either from a distinguished world-class choreographer or by having a celebrated work staged specifically on them. Through this intensive, dancers will develop essential artistry, strengthen their technique, and hone their ability to transition from the classroom to the rehearsal studio to the performance stage.
The program culminates in a public performance, where students showcase their growth as both dancers and artists. This one-of-a-kind experience serves as an introduction to the deeper, more comprehensive training offered during CPYB’s year-round academic program—a rare glimpse into the rigorous and rewarding journey of becoming a professional ballet artist.
In addition to this process, students will learn the foundational technique that has shaped world-class ballet artists for generations with a daily class. Built on the renowned syllabus created by our founder, Marcia Dale Weary, this intensive program emphasizes precision, artistry, and the collaborative spirit of the stage.
