An excellent value and opportunity for dancers from any dance studio in Wisconsin to grow their skills. Monona Academy of Dance staff and guest faculty are prepared to help every dancer grow leaps and bounds. Return to fall classes with a possible year’s worth of growth in four weeks. Your dancer will work on multiple genres including: ballet, tap, jazz, modern, hip hop, contemporary, musical theater, and character. Summer also allows staff to incorporate Pilates, PBT (Progressive Ballet Technique), dance history, choreography, variations, and the art of performance. 7.25 hours of instruction per day.

Each morning begins with a 30 minute warm-up, 1.5 hour ballet class followed by 1 hour of pointe work or pre-pointe work. Afternoons offer rotating classes from a variety of dance styles. If you are a Monona Academy of Dance student and are interested in becoming a member of the MAD City Dancers, or maintaining your membership, four weeks of summer intensive classes are required. Depending upon the dancer’s individual goals one week, four weeks or all five weeks may be appropriate. 7.25 hours of instruction per day.
