13th July 2010
What are the best dancing schools / colleges in the world for different types of dancing.
for ballet, tap, ballroom, salsa and hip hop.
Please comment if you know what the top school is for any of the 5 styles.
Thank-You!
There are no colleges for hip hop.
Ballet dancers go directly into companies not college, but there is Indiana U and Butler U.
No college for ballroom, or salsa either.
Most college/conservatories are contemporary based like Juilliard or NYU Tisch. Some offer a stronger ballet focus like the ones I mentioned. Others offer Jazz as well, but none are for the 4 stiyles other than ballet that you mentioned.
(Juilliard does have tap as an elective)
