Benefits of Summer Dancing! April 23, 2012

We cannot be more excited about our best Summer yet! Starting June 25th all the way to the end of August, we are not planning on slowing things down!
We strongly encourage all of our Students to keep dancing over the Summer months. The benefits are many:

– Staying in shape and keeping your technique current!
– Maintaining the skills and vocabulary you learned over the school year!
– Learning from different Adagio Ballet teachers than during the school year – it’s great to experience different teaching approaches to the same curriculum!
– Getting ready for the next level of dance beginning in the Fall!
– Trying a new dance form to expand your knowledge and experience!

Join us for a Summer Camp, an Intensive Workshop, or a Summer Class! We have something for everyone! Don’t miss the best Summer Program in the area:

– Exciting Summer Curriculum – from Angelina Ballerina to Peter and the Wolf and Choreography Workshops!
Half Day Camps for Students 3 and up with Healthy Snack, Incredibly Fun Crafts, and More!
Full Day Camps for Students 6 and up – the most elaborate & creative summer dance experience we’ve ever offered!
Intensive Classes/Workshops – Join our rapidly growing Intensive Program if you’re up to the challenge!
– Camp/Workshop Performances in the Black Box Theater! Join us for Producing a Show complete w/ professional lights & sound!

If our Camps don’t work with your schedule, you shouldn’t stop dancing! Our Summer Session of regular classes provides plenty of opportunities to continue taking classes on a similar schedule to the school year. This 8-week Session will really make a difference in preparing your dancer for the Fall!

Learn and Dance with us this Summer!
