The Rhythm Ensemble will be running an additional audition to fill our remaining company spots for our summer term. Auditions will be open for our Junior Ensemble and Apprentice Division only. These auditions will cover our summer term that runs from June 2026-August 2026. Auditions will take place during the first class of the term on Sunday, June 7th so accepted dancers won’t miss out on any company classes.

Dancers must register to audition. To register please visit https://therhythmensemble.regfox.com/s10-t3-audition. Current company members do not need to re-audition for the summer term.

Back by popular demand, the Rhythm Ensemble will be offering a series of pop-up summer workshops. Join us for a focused evening of tap dance, designed to refine your technique and deepen your understanding of rhythm, sound, and movement. Whether you’re looking to sharpen fundamentals or explore more nuanced details, this workshop offers a thoughtful approach to tap dance in a supportive, fun setting.

Spaces are intentionally limited to keep the experience personal and focused. Unlike larger workshops, this intimate setting allows for individual attention and meaningful growth. You’ll leave with sharpened skills, fresh inspiration, and a deeper connection to your tap dance practice.

REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN! Visit the link in our bio to register.

We’re excited to welcome Houys Garabedian into the studio ✨

Houys is already part of our Rhythm Ensemble family as director of our Foundations Program, and today she’ll be working closely with our Pre-Pro division, Apprentice division, and Junior Ensemble.

We’ve made the decision to cancel all classes today due to the inclement weather. While conditions are not severe at the moment, the forecast shows accumulation continuing throughout the day, and it’s always a difficult call to make this early. With so many dancers and faculty traveling long distances, we want to prioritize everyone’s safety.

Please stay safe, stay warm, and enjoy the unexpected day off!

We also loved welcoming guest artist Olivia Afonso into the studio today!

Olivia worked with our Foundations Program, bringing thoughtful guidance, strong technique, and encouragement to our youngest dancers. These early experiences with inspiring artists make such a lasting impact.

Today our Pre-Professional Division had the privilege of working with guest artist David Occhipinti during their professional development session, diving deep into polyrhythms, musical clarity, and layered rhythm.

David shared so many concepts and ideas that we’re honestly set with inspiration for the next five years of work! Grateful for artists who challenge our dancers to think deeper, listen harder, and expand what’s possible in tap. Thank you, David, for an incredible session.
