  • Spring Showcase

    Each year, NRDF promotes and supports the Napa Regional Dance Company’s Spring Showcase. The performance marks the culmination of a year's work for NRDC students (pre-ballet through advanced) and highlights choreography from both the company’s gifted instructional staff as well as the talented students enrolled in the school’s Young Choreographers Workshop. Participation in the show provides dancers with the opportunity to showcase their hard-earned technical accomplishments, build individual confidence through performance, and explore diverse styles of artistic expression and creativity.

NRDC Summer Intensive Master Teachers

Where do dancers go in the summer? In search of new experiences to stretch their dance muscles and their creativity! Access to such new experiences and to instructors with varying styles and programs are essential to the development of the advanced dancer. NRDF sponsors master teachers from all over the country to come teach their techniques at the NRDC Summer Intensive.

For more information on summer enrollment, please contact Napa Regional Dance Company.
