We have Day Camps, Evening Classes,
and Summer Intensives for ages 3 and up.
Story Book Ballet Camp (3-5 years old) Mon-Fri 9:00am-12:00pm
Our Story Book Ballet Camp captures the imagination of our little ones with magic and fairytales. It funnels their natural enthusiasm into creative exercises that teach more than just dancing. While the children’s bodies practice balance, strength and coordination, their minds work on creativity, musical awareness, and memory.
In addition to dancing, children will learn ballet stories and participate in dance-centric crafts. The children will prepare a short performance for all of their families to enjoy at the end of the week at 12:00
