FAQs

I’m a beginner! Which session should I take?

If you want to ease into TGHM with a larger group, no solo filming, no solo dancing & a slow pace, take GHM LITE! If you’re up to the challenge of solo filming, solo dancing, smaller group size and mixed levels, take GHM CLASSIC!

I’m already advanced. Which session should I take?

All sessions except for LITE have had professional, veteran, retired, and advanced dancers. Choose according to what is “calling” you at this moment! Do you miss the feeling dance used to give you? CLASSIC. Want intense training? PRO. Want to be behind the camera? CREATIVE. Need to work on networking & getting hired? GAMEPLAN.

Help! I’m scared!

Almost every single person who has attended has made the decision to join us in the face of fear! The intensive is built to focus on overcoming big obstacles in your dancing (some of which you may not even be aware of) and that is naturally going to be a scary thing. Galen’s only objective is for you to WIN- take advantage of this very unique space where you are encouraged to make mistakes & have someone with decades of experience giving you customized feedback just for you.

Is there a lower or upper age limit?

The Galen Hooks Method is currently offered for those 16 years of age or older. We accept video submissions for those younger than 16 years of age with advanced experience. Please send a link to assistants@galenhooks.com showcasing your dance ability and we will assess your placement! The youngest student has been 10, oldest has been 60!

What are the exact times and locations?
