Dive into the full power of human movement. This class explores Doug Varone’s signature style—big, breath-filled dancing that blends strength, lyricism, and musicality. Expect expansive back-and-limb work that turns precision into poetry.
Step inside Varone’s choreography. Through duets, trios, and more, you’ll get a taste of his wide-ranging movement language—dynamic, emotional, and architecturally rich. A fast-paced window into the heart of the company’s work.
Work side by side with Doug as he shares the building blocks of his creative process. You’ll generate, reshape, and reinvent material, discovering new tools for composition and pushing toward a fresh work crafted in class.
