Our studio offers two types of camp: 5-day "Dance Camp" for ages 6-10 and 4-day "Princess Camp" for ages 4-6. For both camps, the students come each day for three hours from 9am - noon and we dance and do arts and crafts. It's a lot of fun and we've run both programs successfully for a few years (we've been doing Dance Camp for more than 10 years... Princess Camp we just started last year).
Each year we do a different theme and base the week's lessons around that theme. We hold an impromptu little "show" on the last day of camp for family and friends.
This year, the older kids' camp theme was "Rock Stars", which was a blast to plan and to do. I wanted to share our week with you and hopefully it will give you some ideas for your camp or even just some fun crafts to do at home this summer!

Dance is a form of
ReplyDeleteart. It should not be bound by any rules. Whatever comes out spontaneously from
a happy mind is dance. I am from the best dance institute in new Delhi
where we don't follow any rules.
