Step into a weekend of choreography, formations, performance training, teamwork, and filming inspired by the K-pop trainee experience.

This is more than a dance workshop.

Over two days, participants will work with their coaches to learn a girl-group or boy-group choreography, clean their movement, understand formations, strengthen their performance quality, and prepare for a final filmed performance.

Experience Level: Previous dance experience is recommended

Space will be limited to protect the quality of the training experience.

SEASON 1

  • "One thing I still remember from participating in K-Pop Experience Season 1 is all of the amazing people I got to meet. Making new friends is something I genuinely enjoy, and being surrounded by people who share the same passion for K-pop made the experience even more meaningful. As someone who isn’t from the area and didn’t know many people, it was incredible to connect with others who had similar interests. Knowing I left with friendships and a community that shared my love for K-pop is something that has truly stayed with me long after the experience ended."

I’ve always wanted to see what it feels like performing, filming, and learning a new dance under a time constraints. it was so fun and I recommend this experience to anyone who has ever wanted to experience something like this!!”

    — Chloe C.

  • “You should join the K-pop Experience if you’ve always wanted to perform K-pop but thought you missed your chance. I was the only one in my 30s, and it ended up being one of the most rewarding dance experiences I’ve had.”

    — Sam M.

  • “You should join The Kpop Experience if you are looking for the opportunity to learn some of the crazy and cool choreo that idols perform on the big stage! I enjoyed the opportunity to practice dancing with a group and do formation changes smoothly. I also had fun practicing facials and stage presence. It was a push to learn everything in a short time but I was proud to see how much I retained and learned. Plus it was very fun working with my team!
