NMYB Summer Intensives
Welcome to NMYB and our 2025 Summer Intensives. This year, we are offering 6 weeks of Summer Intensives.
Over the years, NMYB has gained a stellar reputation for welcoming new students from neighboring studios and for providing compassionate and detailed instruction. Enrollment is limited, so early registration is strongly encouraged. All NMYB dancers are strongly encouraged to register; NMYB Ensemble members for the 2025 – 2026 school year are required to register for at least 1 week of Intensives.
We have designed this year’s program to be a little different than past seasons. For 2025, ALL Intensives are open to dancers from age 9 – 18 years old. On the first day of Intensives, dancers will take a placement class and then be divided into two groups. These groups will be decided upon by technical abilities, age and maturity. Throughout the day, however, dancers may be combined from both groups for certain activities and classes. Throughout the day, both groups will experience the same teachers and types of classes / activities.
Each of our six-week sessions will be a full and holistic experience, including (based on teacher availability): ballet, jazz, contemporary, improv, pointe, character, variations, conditioning and repertoire. Students are welcome to take as many weeks of Summer Intensives as they like.
Join us for an amazing summer of growth and community! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

NMYB Evening classes
Evening classes are a great way to maintain technique. These sessions can also serve as an introduction for new families considering making NMYB their home studio for the 2025 – 2026 school year.
This summer NMYB will offer 3 concentrated weeks of evening classes. Sessions are divided into two groups: Beginning/Advanced Beginning and Intermediate/Advanced. You may register for your level or ask NMYB for assistance. Weekly sessions run Monday through Thursday.
Please note: Dancers enrolled in our Intermediate / Advanced levels will work in pointe shoes for portions of class. If your dancer has met this level requirement but does not yet dance on pointe, your dancer can remain on flat. NMYB does not level visiting students from other studios for pointe, nor do we begin pointe study for NMYB students during summer.

Beginning Ballet Weekly class
New for Season 12! NMYB is offering a 6-week introduction for Beginning Ballet students. Over the course of 6 weeks, dancers ages 7 and older will be introduced to the fundamentals of classical dance. This includes vocabulary, barre work, center and across the floor exercises and stretching. This summer program is a wonderful introduction to ballet, NMYB, and our teaching faculty.
*See Registration form for age requirements, dates and tuition.*

Advance Beginning
Workshops
Each summer we are excited to welcome returning NMYB students as well as dancers from visiting studios for our annual Workshop Series.
Ballet Workshops
Schedules and pricing information
Advance Beginning / newly placed Intermediate, ages 8 – 13 or with Director Approval
Developed by Artistic Director, Mr. Adam Holms with input from year-round NMYB faculty members these half-day workshops have been specifically designed for the Advance Beginner, newly promoted Intermediate student and those dancers recently approved for or with 1 to two years of pointe experience.
This half-day workshop was created to give this particular age group a technically appropriate yet challenging experience that takes into account the social dynamics that make this peer group so unique. Dancers will take two daily technique classes and will work with the same Master Teachers and year-round NMYB instructors that the full-day Intensive dancers receive.
As NMYB’s Artistic Director I am excited to work with this highly motivated age group. So often this population finds themselves too old for a creative dance experience yet not quite mature enough either technically or socially to work through the rigors of an Advanced program. This workshop environment empowers individuals to be pushed technically and given the freedom to grow artistically; all while strengthening the social bonds within this special peer group. I am the most excited for this special program.
