Alumni Success

“For those like me who did not have the opportunity to experiment different dance genres before knowing the IAB, I believe that Foundation course can be the best solution both as a practical and theoretical approach. The styles proposed in this course gave me the chance to expand my knowledge starting from a basic level necessary to understand at 360° the disciplines of dance, singing and acting that will later be studied and deepened in the degree course.”
