Summer ☀️ Intensives help build new skills while further developing their technique.... but it's more than just that. Students create friendships and gain memories they will hold on to throughout their adult lives.

So keep up the great work Align Fance Intensive students, but cherish 😍 those special moments that bring you all together 😉 🎂 wishes

Voice Intensive students spent Friday diving into the Alexander Technique with Jenna Brixius, exploring how posture, alignment, and mindful movement directly support healthy, expressive singing.

They learned to release tension, breathe with more freedom, and connect their whole body to their vocal sound.
A transformative session for developing artists.

One of the most beautiful parts of Summer Intensive is watching new friendships take shape.

Between classes, rehearsals, and shared challenges, students find people who cheer for them, grow with them, and make every day brighter.

Technique builds vocalists — but friendships build memories.

Masterclass time for these summer ☀️ intensive vocalists. This time it was with the dean of PBA's College of the Arts, Dr. Jason Lester. 🎶 🎵

Our Vocal Intensive students shined, bravely sharing their voices and learning from one another.

With guidance on tone, phrasing, and storytelling, each singer walked away with new tools and fresh confidence.
Such an inspiring session.
