Juilliard Dance | A Day in the Life

Experience second-year dancer Matthew Gilmore's typical day at Juilliard: academic classes, ballet, modern, New Dances rehearsal, and time for a personal choreography project.

i thought all my life that it was impossible for me to get into juilliard, but now I´m so confident with myself, prepare yourself Juilliard because in 2019 im going to get in the dance division, for those that think "im not good enough" just breath and start practicing, it is all in your mind, if you think about it you can do it, good luck to everyone <3

I wish more schools did these type of videos. When I was applying almost four years ago, it's a great promotional video for the students that don't have the advantages to travel and visit these institutions. Good on you, Julliard for these videos.

I’m auditioning for their dance summer intensive today in NYC; so nervous yet so excited!! Good luck to everyone💜

“Be the best dancer I can be”; good for you for not saying the best of all time, or whatever, which is so subjective. Reach your full potential and no one can ever take that from you.

My friend, the remarkable and ground-breaking choreographer/dancer, Carla DeSola, graduated from Juilliard’s dance program in 1960, mentored by the great Jose Limon. She went on to be one of the pioneers of modern liturgical dance. What fantastic dance education Juilliard has been offering for such a span of time! Thank you!

this is my dream school :’) i’ve been dancing since i was 3 but i quit 2 years ago because of my dance teachers being too hard on me, it really destroyed my self confidence. I’m thinking of getting back into it because it just feels right but i’m also scared it’s too late since im a junior in high school :’( this is such a dream and passion of mine but im scared im not good enough

Juilliard is my dream college because I love dancing and I really want to be on Broadway! I have Been dancing for eight years I started when I was 2 and now I am 10. My dance studio I am at right now is amazing! everyone there is super nice and hard working! Even though I have a lot of time till college this my dream college and I am confident about it! <3

The first thing I think about when I see them dance is Yoga. Fluid movements using amazing core strength, balance, and control.

Here I am!! I'm 13, so considerably not THAT talented but yeah got the passion and SOME amount of talent!! Wanna do something to follow my passion but am worried too, thinking I don't have enough on me to go for dancing, currently working but really really less!! This pandemic, stay safe guys💜

[avatalbot]

My biggest dream is to go to Juilliard I talk about it all the time and it really stresses me out I'm trying my best to be my best self and really hoping that when I apply I get in🤞🏼fingers crossed

I wish I could dance, I wanna dance so bad. Dancing, singing, and acting are really the only things that can truly make me happy, and it’s so hard living knowing I’m too late to start. I’ve never taken jazz, tap, hip-hop, lyrical, gymnastics, pointe, and... yea, you get the point. But one day, I’ll learn how to dance. I have to, or I won’t have a life. You can’t succeed in musical theatre without dancing, so I’ve got to.

Do yall take dancers from small countries, because I'm from the Caribbean island of Trinidad and Tobago.

[kimk]

I want to go to Juilliard but I don’t do ballet or out like that I’m doing Acro Dance at the moment so I have some dance ability if I try and get into theatre Which is what I want to do and I am gonna try and get singing lessons but I am worried that just Acro skills won’t get me anywhere so if anyone has any input then I would be happy to hear it cause I don’t want to go into a theatre company and not know how to do a certain dance that everyone else already knows

[kanademotomura]

Please make a day in the life for Vocal please!! That would be amazing:)

[michaylacatron]

they don't know it yet, but im gonna be there. i will.
