"Thank you so much for your time and dedication these past weeks.  I have grown so much as a dancer and artist.  Your teaching at Joffrey South has encouraged me to continue to chase my dreams."

"Our granddaughter thought that this was the best camp she had attended during the past three summers...she simply loved the instructors, the girls, the dorm, and the campus.  My wife and I were impressed with the final performance.  (Our granddaughter) has improved so much under the instruction at Joffrey South."            -Grandparent '05

"What a relief (long distance) to hear the pure joy in her voice during her frequent and animated phone calls!...We thank you for your time, your caring, your expertise, and your willingness to share it all with dreaming devoted dancers."     -Parent '06

All Joffrey South Workshops take place on the beautiful campus of GCSU in historic Milledgeville, Georgia, the antebellum capital of Georgia, where many homes and buildings from the early 1800’s still stand.  Dancers and chaperones will live two to a room in air-conditioned, suite-style residence halls (http://www.gcsu.edu/housing), conveniently located within walking distance of classes, activities, and our quaint downtown streets. 

Tuition for all workshops includes lodging and all meals in our dining hall (http://www.gcsudining.com).

 The Joffrey South Workshop offers advanced students ages 15-21 a three-week, in-depth ballet experience. Daily technique will be offered in ballet, pointe, variations, pas de deux, and new choreography. On the final day of the program students will perform in a demonstration on the stage at Russell Auditorium. Students attending the Joffrey South Workshop will be considered for enrollment in the Joffrey Ballet School’s year-long program in New York City.   Click here for an application. (pdf)

Young aspiring dance students, ages 11-14, have the opportunity to attend this one-week or nine day intensive ballet workshop. This is a wonderful introduction to summer dance away from the familiarity of the student’s home studio. Students participate in six or an extended nine days of ballet, pointe, and variations, augmented with a pointe shoe seminar, history of ballet, and other dance related classes. The week will culminate in a student demonstration on the final day.  Click here for an application. (pdf)

Note: There is a separate application for Joffrey Light, which can be found below.

Joffrey Light , new in 2008, is our way of giving the youngest beginning dance students a taste of  the intensive routine, while only spending two nights away from home.  This long weekend will be filled with the same classes the older students take, but will be just long enough to whet the appetite for the Joffrey Intermediate.  No audition is required, but space is limited. 

 To apply for Joffrey Light:

Auditions are not required for acceptance into Joffrey Light.  Students will be taken on a first-applied, first-accepted basis.  To attend Joffrey Light, please complete an application form (pdf) along with the two waiver forms found on our website and mail them, along with your check payable to GCSU for $285, to:
