Ailey Extension Presents First-Time Revelations Master Class Series

In celebration of 50 years of Revelations, The Ailey Extension invites intermediate to advanced level dancers to learn excerpts of the classic ballet from the experts! For the first time ever, Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater's Hope Boykin and former Company members, Milton Myers and Aubrey Lynch II, will host public classes featuring choreography from all three sections of Revelations. Beginner dancers can also join in the celebration with Revelations at 50 Classes, offered in select Horton and Contemporary Dance classes at The Ailey Extension.

You've seen the artistry, now become the artist! Experience the magic of Revelations in this exclusive master class series through December 30th. Each of the 12 classes offered in the unique series will highlight a different routine from Revelations, giving dance lovers the chance to experience the inspiring ballet in a new way with each class! As an added bonus, students who enroll in four or more classes will receive a free Revelations CD.
