Dance Classes
Douglas Graham's THEATRE DANCE CLASSES combine a vast knowledge
of original Broadway repertoire with a unique jazz/theatre dance
style bringing students of any level to
their own realization of what it takes to be a pro.
"There’s no greater
joy than seeing students beginning
to realize their own unique talents then nurturing them to dream big, and
watching it happen."
Personally hired by Bob Fosse
for his first show in NYC,
the National Tour of DANCIN’, the Fosse style is now part
and parcel of Doug's Master Classes. "I
don’t stop with Fosse, I also teach original repertoire from CATS, CHICAGO,
A CHORUS LINE and beyond, even the classic styling of the movies
from the 20s through the 50s."
Combine all that with Doug's own
unique style, accrued from
working with the best and brightest in the business ... students leave with
a sense of not only personal accomplishment, but a greater confidence
to tackle
future auditions, and empowering them to take this
sense of power into their lives and to be all they can be.
Douglas Graham's MASTER DANCE CLASSES range from 90 minutes
to two hours, and involve a warm-up specifically designed to
center and strengthen from the core. Also included: isolations,
unique and powerful ways to stretch, and across-the-floor combinations.
In the second segment students experience
Broadway level dance, learn actual original steps done through
the
years by Broadway
dance professional. This segment will give each student
a taste of what it actually takes to be on a Broadway stage.
Douglas's classes are upbeat, disciplined but positive, encouraging
and energizing to the body, mind and spirit.
"I always give 100% to every
class and that’s
what I get in return from my students!"

With performance backgrounds on Broadway and in National Tours of Cats, Phantom of the Opera and Chicago, Douglas is versed in the styling and techniques of musical theatre, classical, cabaret and pop.
His technique - a true vocal workout - has been passed down by master vocal instruction geniuses Eddie Sayegh and Erik Thorendahl, and the Garcia-Marchesi method which deal specifically with the muscles involved with proper singing technique.
Douglas works with any voice - it all comes from the same place. Whether your focus be opera, pop, rock, country, Broadway, etc., if you can stay on pitch, I can help you become a better singer.
Douglas also plays the piano and can coach for upcoming auditions (including audition technique) or performances you are working toward.
Douglas works out of his home/studio in Palm Springs or can travel to you if you have a piano (for a slight extra travel charge).
