MOVEMENT INVENTION PROJECT® 
Program Director, Nancy Turano

MIP® named Top 10 International Contemporary Dance Intensives in 2017 & 2018, is a unique summer dance intensive for advanced dancers.  Dancers work with an extraordinary faculty of teachers, choreographers, and mentors in a project that encourage srisk-taking, creativity, and the development of improvisational skills in a supportive environment, preparing the dancer to work in collaboration with today's choreographers.
MIP® for advanced dancers ages 18-23.

*MIP® is an expansion of NJDTE Educational Programming based in Summit, NJIt was founded in 2009 as a collaboration with Vancouver Arts Umbrella, Canada.
