About
World Dance Celebration at Ailey Extension brings diverse communities together to share their rich cultural heritages from around the world.
This eight-week student performance workshop is designed for all levels of dancers to gain invaluable performance training, improve their quality of movement, and discover the extraordinary performer inside of them.
Dancers will receive individual attention in rehearsals and push the boundaries of their creative voice with original choreography from prominent Ailey instructors, culminating in performances at the Ailey Citigroup Theater.
