International Ballet Festival ~ Summer Intensive
Houston, Texas, USA / July 26 - August 6, 2027
One World. Many EXPRESSIONS. The Language of Ballet.
The Cultural Diplomacy Alliance - International Ballet Festival (TCDA-IBF) / Summer Intensive
celebrates different cultures coming together through theater and the arts.
It operates independently of any educational institution.
Each year, we carefully select Directors, Ballet Masters, Choreographers, and Principal Artists
from esteemed Dance Companies and Ballet Schools worldwide to deliver a comprehensive curriculum.
This includes both technique and lecture courses focused on essential topics
for the holistic development of a dancer, with an emphasis on classical ballet.
Distinct from other summer intensives, TCDA-IBF provides scholarships for
professional Dance Programs in Europe and the United States.
Students from across the globe gather annually at TCDA-IBF, creating a diverse and enriching environment.
The program culminates with a performance showcasing the talents of our participants.
