WHAT:
Paris Summer Academy (PSA) is a unique type of professional summer intensive with an interdisciplinary approach to different art forms including Contemporary Dance, Physical Theatre, Performance Art, and Voice among others.

The program is open to all curious and open-minded dancers, physical theatre actors and performance artists who are willing to expand their skills, abilities and imagination towards a cutting edge horizon.
