About

THE ON OFF WORKSHOP is an international training program dedicated to stewarding the legacy of Broadway theater dance for a new generation of artists.

Launched in Paris by Broadway dancer and ON OFF founder Lori Ann Ferreri, we offer transformative experiences through intimate classes and workshops with international artists, choreographers, and educators.

Our collaborative format consists of immersive masterclasses learning original choreography and répertoire in jazz, contemporary, and theater dance, followed by a discussion with industry-leading artists to ask questions and grow as a community.

ON OFF Dance aims to be a pathway for cultural exchange and to support the continued development of theater dance and live arts globally.
