The Nai-Ni Chen Dance Company announces their 2023 summer institute for dancers seeking a deep exploration of culture and self-expression, beyond dance movement and technique. The Nai-Ni Chen Dance Company classes aim to bring together dancers, choreographers and directors from around the world to create dance that transforms personal, environmental and metaphysical spaces. Classes will be held at New York’s New Center for Creativity and Dance at 287 E. 10th St., from August 8 – 17.

Advanced/Intermediate level professional or pre-professional dancers looking to push their boundaries with new dance experiences are encouraged to participate. The core program is based on Nai-Ni Chen’s Kinetic Spiral, a cross-cultural dance vocabulary that integrates the Chinese martial arts philosophy in TaiChi, QiGong with contemporary dance practices and ballet. In this series, guest artist Aloe Ao Liu will teach the Peacock Dance from Yunnan Province in China. Yunnan borders China and Laos, Burma and Thailand, a region with rich indigenous cultures and history. Ms. Liu has performed internationally with some of the most prestigious dance companies in the world.
