Professional Workshops & Classes

All Season

As part of our commitment to supporting the professional development of artists in the community, TDT hosts special intensives in addition to our staple open classes where dance artists can train alongside TDT’s ensemble and together discover various dance practices and forms. Classes and workshops occur during TDT’s production season and the class schedule is typically released every 1 to 2 weeks. All TDT classes are on a pay-what-you-can basis (Suggested $15) and are held in-person at the Winchester Street Theatre.

We are not running classes from March 13 to April 3 as we are in production for Convergent Divergency (on stage March 23 – April 1). Classes will resume Tuesday April 4.

Upcoming Classes:

  • Monday March 6 at 10:15 – 11:45 a.m. ET: Sensorimotor Tuning for Dancers with Darryl Tracy (includes live accompanist)
  • Tuesday March 7 at 10:30 – 11:45 a.m. ET: Graham Class Workout with Rosemary James (includes live accompanist)
  • Wednesday March 8 at 10:15 – 11:45 a.m. ET: Alexander Technique with Susan Sinclair

Cardio, Pilates and Yoga with Renelyn Quinicot

A 1.5 hour journey through tender, explorative, and playful movement.

A 1.5 hour journey through tender, explorative, and playful movement. Pulling from actions inspired by Yoga, Pilates and Cardio-dance exercise, we’ll begin and end in restful meditation and work up a fiery heat to build strength in our bodies, and hearts in between. Expect to work the whole body, dance and sweat a bit, and leave with a few new supportive breathing tools to use in your every day.
