We’re thrilled to announce a unique opportunity coming to our studio, The Dancing House, on February 22! 

Paul Becker, a world-renowned choreographer/director who choreographed Disney’s Descendants, Deadpool, The Muppets, Riverdale, A Series of Unfortunate Events, Twilight, and over 400 other titles, is hosting an On-Camera Dance Intensive right here at our studio. Paul, who is also a producing partner with Kenny Ortega, will be teaching dancers of all ages and levels.

In addition, Paul will be holding an optional general audition for his future projects during the intensive. Don’t worry—this will be an extension of the class and a great learning experience. He’ll be educating while auditioning, and it’s a chance to be considered for future opportunities in his film and tv projects.

For any questions, email assistant@paulbecker.ai and they will be happy to help.
