We decided to do our video on dance in New York City. Lincoln Center and the Juilliard School are both prominent centers in dance society. The Juilliard School produces some of the most famous dancers of our time, while Lincoln Center holds performances from some of the most influential dance companies in the world. We chose to explore this topic because we are both dancers and have been dancing competitively for a majority of our lives. We learned that Juilliard trains around 800 undergraduate and graduate students in dance, drama and music, while The New York City Ballet (located in Lincoln Center) is home to some of the greatest dance troupes, such as the American Ballet.
