What makes BP’s workshop unique is its authoritative faculty and its
atmosphere of artistic excellence, professionalism and innovation. At
the helm of the workshop is BP’s Artistic Director, National Artist for
Dance Alice Reyes, who started the workshop almost 50 years ago.
Whether you’re a beginner or a pre-professional dancer, you will enjoy
learning and honing your craft in classical ballet, modern and
contemporary dance, and hip-hop and adult ballet. There are also
classes in improvisation and composition, lectures in music for dance,
makeup, and costume design, as well as courses for dance teachers of
the Special Programs for the Arts and Senior High School Arts and
Design Track.
Reyes is joined by Adam Sage, BP’s Associate Artistic Director and
Ballet Master, and guest teachers Effie Nañas and Kun-Yang Lin, who
will give special master classes. BP alumni and dance professionals
such as Edward Malagkit, Monette Victoria, Perry Sevidal, Gina
Katigbak-Garcia, Jeng Halili, Butch Esperanza, Annette Cruz-Mariano,
and PJ Rebullida, and current company members join the roster of
teachers this summer. Raul Alcoseba will teach dance composition to
aspiring choreographers.
"Students can always look forward to learn something from the summer
dance workshop,” says BP Dance School Director Rubylee Gomez.
“What’s exciting is what they will find out about themselves and their
dancing—what they’re capable of, how far they can push themselves, how to make each movement meaningful and how to work hard. They
can use this not just in dancing but in everyday life."
Located in the heart of the Philippine art scene, the Cultural Center of
the Philippines, dance students are immersed in Filipino culture while
also studying in the same halls that have produced outstanding dance
artists for almost 50 years.
