Youth Intensive

Youth Intensive

Dance with us this summer

Our annual Youth Intensive is one of Australia’s most highly regarded short contemporary dance training courses for dancers aged 14–19.

Dance, learn and connect with the Collective and explore the possibilities of contemporary dance.

We invite dancers aged 14–19 to join ADC's Company Artists and Artistic Team in the studio to experience our creative process, learn current ADC repertoire and discover new movement ideas.

Develop your contemporary technique in an inclusive and creative environment in this week-long program featuring choreographic workshops, task work and daily class led by our extraordinary artists.


#2026 Program

This program is suited to contemporary dance students with at least five years of dance experience.

Over the five-day intensive, dancers will work collectively with the ADC Company Artists and Artistic Team, participating in technique class, learning ADC company repertoire and building improvisation and choreographic skills. Join us to gain a unique insight into the professional industry.
