Dance Intensive, Summer Dance Camp in the Hamptons, Carlos Neto
1. What excites you about teaching Dance Intensive this summer and working with students who are either new to hip hop or who have experience?
It’s always exciting to meet new students in new areas specially those who are new to hip hop and street jazz. I’m looking forward to working with them intensively with enough time to build a foundation and create something special!
2. What is your approach to teaching, overall way of sharing your love of dance with others?
I enjoy teaching students more than just choreography or steps. I aim to give them a strong foundation that will allow them to grow at their own pace as well as serve them when taking other classes in the future.
I also believe it is very important to not focus solely on the dance but find the individual light within every student and push for their individuality and self confidence.
3. What are you excited about in your own work or projects you are working on or plan to start soon?
At the moment I’m part of a documentary about immigrant artists which will be shooting throughout the entirety of 2022. Very excited to see the final result. I’m working on a couple of music videos for 2 very special artists and also gearing up for the start of the new convention tour called Luminous.
Here is also a glimpse at Carlos’ choreography reel. See you in Dance Intensive!
