The New York Dance Festival has been bringing world-class dance to participants for the past 33 years! Be a part of this very special two week experience which includes daily master classes in Modern, Ballet, Hip Hop, McLeod Technique, MT Afro Hip Hop, MT Reinforced Motor Function, McLeod Technique for Pointe, African, and more, a world-class concert series, and the Harriet Tubman Freedom Music Festival. Professional to novice, we are one of the only non-audition national programs of our caliber. Because we do not require auditions, no person is excluded or put through the emotional trials of an audition selection process, and families are welcome.

The Festival runs Monday – Friday with Master Classes from 10:00-4:30pm daily, for full day tuition participants and some additional special options for Choreography and evening Master Classes as well. The final Friday evening at 8:00 PM is the culminating concert the “A Day in Dance” Showcase Concert, where all full-day participants perform!

We are excited for our Online in In Person World Class Concert Series! In the evenings and weekend, the New York Dance Festival we will present Virtual concerts through live streaming. Stay tuned for more updates including people, dates, times, and online or in person details. The  concert & event series will include:

• Two Black Voices – Panel Discussion & Workshop
• In Her Words: A Panel Discussion on Innovative Leadership from the Arts
• International Stage Concert ONLINE
