VALLETO summer intensive is an 11-day dance training workshop designed for dancers who wish to strengthen their techniques, expand their dance network, connect with their artistic mission and be in a creative and choreographic process. This intensive includes dance techniques such as floorwork, ballet, dance theater, partnering, improvisation, and flying low taught by invited guest artists and director Valeria Gonzalez.
