Sunday Intensives: train like a performer in just four Sundays!
Focused technique training in K-Pop, Contemporary & Modern, and Turns, Leaps & Flexibility. Small groups, real corrections, and a live performance for the whole family on the final Sunday.
Three intensives. Real technique.
Each program is built around specific skills, taught step by step and corrected one-on-one.
K-Pop Performance Intensive
Starts Sunday, November 1
Instructor: Mr. Nilton Rodney
Sharp, synchronized, stage-ready choreography to today’s K-pop hits.
- Isolations & control: chest, hips and head; hits, waves and stops on the beat
- Formation precision: dancing in sync, spacing and clean transitions
- Performance quality: facial expression, projection and camera awareness
- Fast choreography pick-up: learning and cleaning a combination like a pro
Contemporary & Modern Technique
Starts Sunday, November 1
Instructor: Ms. Natasha Czarniewy
Strength, control and expression, grounded in modern dance technique.
- Floor work: rolls, spirals and safe transitions in and out of the floor
- Release technique: contraction, release, breath and use of weight
- Turns, leaps & extensions: pirouette prep, spotting, développés and across-the-floor
- Expressive movement: dynamics, musicality and guided improvisation
Turns, Leaps & Flexibility Lab
Starts Sunday, November 1
Instructor: Ms. Natasha Czarniewy
Pure technique, no single style. Built for dancers who want to level up in every class.
- Turns: spotting, balance and single-to-double pirouette progressions
- Leaps & jumps: take-off, extension, height and soft landings
- Flexibility: active stretching for splits, extensions and back, safe for growing bodies
- Conditioning: core strength and stability that make every skill cleaner

Our dancers love to perform, and every intensive ends with a performance for families.
One price. The full program.
Intensives are sold as complete 4-week programs only, so every dancer builds the same skills from week 1 to the final performance.
Intermediate level: one year of training required
These are true intensives, so every dancer needs at least one year of formal dance classes, with us or at another studio.
- Current Salsa With Silvia students qualify automatically.
- Dancers from other studios: share the studio name and years of training when you register.
- Spots are confirmed once the prerequisite is verified.
Parent questions
Can my child drop in for one class?
No. Each intensive is a complete 4-week program, so dancers build skills together from the first Sunday through the final performance.
What if my child misses a Sunday?
We’ll send the practice video so your dancer can catch up before the next session. There are no make-up classes or partial refunds.
My child dances at another studio. Can they join?
Yes, as long as they have at least one year of formal dance training. Share the studio name and years of training when you register, and we’ll confirm the spot.
When do families see the performance?
Families are invited in for the last 15 minutes of week 4, and every family receives the performance video.
Only 15 spots per group!
Registration opens soon. Early registration ($175) closes Sunday, October 25. Classes start Sunday, November 1. When a group fills, we open a waitlist.
