Summer 2026 Dance Camp
More Info to come
WHAT TO EXPECT
We will start each morning with a warm-up, some stretching and some fun! Your dancer will then be introduced to various forms of dance from the traditional tap, ballet and jazz to musical theater, lyrical, contemporary, and maybe even a little hip-hop. We will explore these different dance forms, while being reminded of "The One" who gives us the talents, abilities, and opportunities to have fun, dance, and even worship and praise Him through dance!!
Camp will start Tuesday, July 9th at 9:00 a.m.. You may drop your child off between 8:40 and 9:00 at the entrance of the Youth Worship Center. You will need to be with your camper as you check them in each morning. We will give them a bracelet each day with their name on it. We will ask you to check or add to their bracelet; the best contact number for that day, and the name of the person that will be picking them up. These bracelets will be color-coded based on the group your dancer(s) will be with while at camp. This will help us learn their names and help us with pick-up. This will also be a quick and efficient way for us to contact you if needed.
You may pick up your dancer at 12:00 on Tuesday and Wednesday. Please come to where you dropped your child off and see me or one of my assistants and we will get your camper to you. On Thursday at 11:35 a.m. we are inviting you inside to come watch your dancer perform and show off some of what they will have learned during Dance Camp.
WHAT TO WEAR
If your child has a leotard, they are encouraged to wear one each day. I do ask if they wear a leotard, they wear tights underneath, or shorts, leggings or skirts on top. If they do not have a leotard...not a problem! They may wear shorts, skorts, leggings or pants with a top. However, it would be best if their clothing was somewhat fitted and not baggy or very loose. Baggy and/or loose clothing can cause injuries, and can be a problem when doing different skills. Their attire may not show their midriff!
**On Thursday, I would like each girl to wear all black or another dark color like navy, because of them performing at the conclusion of the camp. This may be any combination of the type of clothing worn the first two days of camp. We may add their camp shirt over top.
Please make sure their hair is up and secure each day when they arrive. (ponytail, braid(s), bun…
SHOES
If your child has dance shoes(ballet, tap or jazz)...bring them! Just please make sure they have their names in them! We will be doing ballet, lyrical/contemporary, jazz, tap, musical theater and possibly Hip Hop. If they do not have dance shoes...no worries! They will be able to dance without! If they do not have a shoe for the particular style we are doing, I will ask them to go barefoot or maybe wear a sock on a foot for turning. They may want to wear tennis shoes for hip hop.
