FACULTY PHOTO SHOOT
Come get your photo taken with the PULSE faculty! We have designed a fantastic system so that you can! In order for thisopportunity to run smoothly, we ask that you abide by the procedure created by the staff and faculty: after The PULSE Performance Showcase on Saturday evening, we will ask you to gather your by the designated Teacher Workshop sign in the main ballroom. The Faculty will be seated together on a couch and groups of dancers and teachers will approach the couch and take a photo. Photos

To expedite matters, we ask that you form a group of at least five friends. There will be no individual photos taken. We have professional photographers from ProPix on hand, and photos are available for purchase at the ProPix Vendor Booth during the day on Sunday. You will also be able to use your personal cameras, though we move very fast -- snap when you can!

WE KNOW FROM EXPERIENCE THAT THIS WORKS, AND EVERYONE WILL BE ACCOMMODATED IN A TIMELY AND ORGANIZED FASHION!

This is the only time we will host a group photo session with the Faculty throughout the workshop.
*If you want to take your photo, but do not plan to watch the performance—that’s ok! Come to the ballroom just before the showcase is over.

The Final Night Gala is the finale of our PULSE Summer NYC. It features performances from the PULSE Intensives, top soloists from the Solo Scholarship Program, Choreography Picks from Saturday’s Performance Showcase, lots of guest artists, and more!
