Designed for intermediate to advanced dancers, the Teen Track invites young artists to dive into Ballet, Contemporary, Modern, Jazz, Improv, Floorwork, and Hip Hop with the RKDC Company and Artistic Director Regina Klenjoski. Dancers will strengthen their technique, grow their performance skills, and tap into their creativity through dynamic classes and the exciting process of learning an original contemporary dance.
Each day begins with conditioning and somatics to prepare the body, followed by technique classes and new choreography sessions. Informal educational discussions round out the experience, deepening understanding of dance as an art form. This program challenges dancers to grow, take risks, and find their artistic voice—all in a supportive, professional environment.
Ages: 13-17 (younger students considered with audition, please email intensive@rkdc.org)
Level: intermediate/advanced
Location:
Wichita State University Dance Studio 145

The scholarship video should be 2-3 minutes long and does not need to be professionally filmed—what matters most is that we see your passion, personality, and technique. In the first 30 seconds, please include a brief introduction with your name, age, where you’re from, how long you’ve been dancing, what styles you enjoy, and a few words about why you are excited to join the summer intensive and how this scholarship will help you pursure your passon. The second part of the video (90–120 seconds) should feature a short solo —this can be a freestyle or choreographed phrase, either self-created or learned—that highlights your strengths and style. Please submit your video as a shareable link (such as YouTube, Vimeo, or Google Drive) by emailing dance@rkdc.org. Include the applicant name in the email. The deadline for scholarship submissions is June 6, 2025.
