Students spend the year studying technical skills and history associated with each style, they complete projects and critiques, and participate in additional master classes led by guest dance companies. Guest companies that have come to teach classes such as West African, Korean traditional dance, Bharatanatyam, contemporary, ballet, and jazz include Giordano Jazz Dance Chicago, Kalapriya Dance Chicago, South Chicago Dance Theater, Ayodele Drum and Dance, Choomna Dance Company of Seoul South Korea, and Joffrey Ballet. The technical work of the school year culminates in a mandatory dance concert at the end of the school year where Kenwood Dance Department presents student choreographed and guest artist works in the Annual Dance Concert.
