Boys and Girls, Ages 11–18
Beginning and Intermediate

Please Note: Due to a large program opening registration February 1, 2012, with approximately 20,000 in–coming calls, we have had to move registration for all dance camps to Monday, February 6, 2012, at 9:00 a.m. MT. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

This exciting workshop provides participants with a variety of dance experiences. The exposure to different dance styles that you receive will assist in identifying potential areas of interest. We invite you to learn the basics in such genres as ballet, ballroom, clogging, hip hop, jazz, modern, musical theatre, and world dance from BYU’s nationally recognized dance faculty. You will experience valuable enrichment as you progress in each genre workshop. Each day will include six hours of dance training in some of the finest facilities available. You will receive challenging instruction and beneficial feedback. If you find your interest piqued on a specific form of dance, we will help you know how to get more involved in one of our other dance programs in the future.

During free time, on-campus participants can relax and enjoy recreation provided by our friendly recreation counselors. Other activities include swimming, bowling, dances, games, movies, contests, and skits. There will be free time to explore the beautiful campus, shop at the bookstore, or visit one of three museums on campus.
