California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) College of Continuing and Professional Education's Community Engagement is proud to announce our 2nd Annual Masters of Dance Seminar (MODS) to be held on Saturday, March 28, 2009 from 8:00am – 3:00pm in the CSULB Walter Pyramid.
Last year, MODS brought together leading industry professional dancers and choreographers from Broadway, ballet, world-touring companies, music videos, film, and television. The unique experience provided participants with an opportunity to see and hear, first hand, the vast industry opportunities available. Carrie Ann Inaba, who is best known as a judge on Dancing with the Stars, kicked off the exciting day with a keynote address and awarded three dance scholarships.
By attending our 2nd annual event, participants will once again have the opportunity to not only be exposed to a rich mix of information in a fun and professional environment, but to work with each master instructor in a group setting; learning steps, perfecting techniques, asking questions, and gaining knowledge of the history and nuance of each dance style. The day will culminate with Carrie Ann Inaba awarding more dance scholarships. Our confirmed master instructors include:
The normal registration fee is $150, however due to generous donations and sponsorships, the registration fee has been significantly reduced to only $25.00. For additional information on the event, instructors, scholarship application process, and registration please visit: www.modsuniversity.com .
In addition, we are extremely happy to announce that we have added a Dance Showcase following the seminar that will highlight various professional and non professional dance groups from industry, schools, colleges, and private studios. If you are interested in participating in the dance showcase, please contact: Marvin Mayo at mmayo@ccpe.csulb.edu or (562) 985- 2889.
