With 33 years of experience, your child is guaranteed to have a great time while improving their technique. If your son or daughter has never danced before, this is a great opportunity to introduce them to the dance world!

CLASS STRUCTURE

We break our classes into levels so that everyone can be challenged in their own way. Dancers will learn a variety of routines and get the opportunity to try styles they may have yet to be exposed to! The best part about dance camp is that dancers get the opportunity to learn from new teachers that can bring a different perspective to their learning process like never before.

BRING A FRIEND

Camp is always more fun when you are with a BUDDY. As a fun summer tradition, many dancers invite cousins or friends to join them at camp. Have no fear, if you don’t come with a friend, we will make sure to find you a buddy when you arrive!

DANCE YOUR BEST AND BE REWARDED! At all of our youth camps, you will have the opportunity to be rewarded with one of these exciting and fun ribbons! Dancing your best and working hard is definitely one way to earn yourself one of these ribbons, however; there are other ways you can get your hands on a ribbon as well. For instance, if you are demonstrating good sportsmanship or help a fellow dancer who is struggling with a move, or even for trying something new and pushing yourself to grow as a dancer are just some of the ways!
