The Ailey Experience Tour provides dancers of all experience levels the opportunity to study with prominent Ailey instructors and former Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater company dancers in their hometown.

Students learn a variety of techniques while learning the rich history of Alvin Ailey’s signature style and how he changed the perception of American modern dance.

No dance experience or audition is required—all levels are welcome!

AILEY is thrilled this year to be celebrating over a decade in partnership with AREA Atlanta for Ailey Experience.
