Student Ensemble
Meet the Garth Fagan Dance School’s Student Ensemble, a diverse dance team of youth ages 5-18, who train in the Fagan Technique, rehearse, and perform original choreography.
The Ensemble is a guided immersion for youth in the professional rigors of a dance career. The program takes place in the Garth Fagan Dance studios, is taught by professional dancers, and includes regular visits by Mr. Fagan. These cultural ambassadors for contemporary dance perform throughout the year at area festivals and corporate events.
The yearlong immersive experience culminates with the Student Ensemble performing on stage at the Nazareth Arts Center in both matinee shows for the Company’s home season.
