The Daytime Dance Residency is a program offered between the hours of 7am-3pm by Colorado Ballet’s Education & Community Engagement team. This program has two duration options:
- Intensive: Classes every day for one week
- Extended: 1-2 classes every week
for multiple weeks (up to 14 weeks)
Our custom curriculum is scaffolded to build on creative concepts for brain-body connection, joy of
movement, and social-emotional learning through the dance arts. We work one on one with sites and classroom teachers to build a class plan that coordinates with your learning objectives.
Each residency is customized to the age of the participants. We currently have ongoing Extended Daytime Dance residencies at the following sites:
- Megan's Place
- Mapleton Post Acute
- Denver Athletic Club
- Skyline Academy
Previous Daytime Dance residencies have included:
- The Studio School
- South High School
- Park Hill Elementary
- Elkhart Elementary
- Maxwell Elementary
At your site! We can be in the gym, auditorium, library - any space that allows us to get moving and get creative.
Final cost is dependent on the residency demands and schedule, but full price for this program is $150/hour.
Colorado Ballet has reserved sholarship funds for this program. Please get in touch to see what we can make happen and work within your budget.
- Teachers or site facilitators are active participants in every session
- Participants wear comfortable school clothes and typically remove shoes during class
- A pre-program planning meeting is required to align on goals, expectations, and schedule
