ULTIMATE CALIFORNIA DANCE CAMP
Girls ages 8 - 17: What are YOU doing this summer?! Why not spend a week or two (or more!) dancing, making new friends & having a BLAST with American Dance Training Camps in the beautiful Sierra Mountains of Northern California, just minutes from Lake Tahoe?
Our California home is the Squaw Valley Academy 1 mile from the Squaw Valley Village (perhaps best known for its world class skiing and for being the site of the 1960 Olympics), a fully accredited boarding school just one mile from Squaw Valley resort's base area packed with shops, restaurants, activities and fun, and views that simply take your breath away. ADTC campers stay in double-occupancy log cabin-esque dorms with shared bathrooms. ADTC staff are housed in rooms on each floor, providing supervision & support. Amenities include community lounges (for doing arts & crafts and hanging out), laundry facilities, and a Dance Canteen for basic supplies, snacks, apparel & souvenirs.
ADTC’s dance instructors are members of some of the best national and international studios and performance groups. Our dance instructors are Broadway and MTV performers, finalists from your favorite dance TV shows, collegiate dance team competitors, teachers and even Dance Company members! Many of our dance instructors return year after year. ADTC’s camper-to-counselor ratio is 7:1.
In addition to core dance classes in contemporary, hip hop & jazz (styles of jazz vary and may include lyrical, modern or Broadway), you get to choose between ballet, tap or world dance for your core elective dance discipline each week. Campers take at least four dance classes per day, and at week’s end, you get to show off your new moves in a big Friday Night Performance for family, friends and fellow campers. Day camp option is available upon request!
Outside of dance, ADTC California campers can enjoy awesome activities like swimming, horseback riding, kayaking on Lake Tahoe, ice skating, rock wall, trampolines, a ropes course, mini golf & more!
