This camp is all about helping kids discover the joy of movement while immersing them in the rhythms and colors of Latin culture.

• Daily Activities (Monday–Friday):
  • Dance: Kids learn fun Latin dances, practicing rhythm, coordination, and expressive movement.
  • Music: They explore beats and melodies, clapping, stepping, and playing along as they learn to feel the music.
  • Art: Creative projects connect to dance and culture, letting campers draw, paint, and craft their way through the week.
  • More Fun: Group games, creative exercises, and collaborative activities keep energy high and friendships forming.
• Special Theme Days:
  • Thursday – Splash Day! A playful water-themed day where kids cool off, splash around, and enjoy outdoor fun. Pack anything your child needs for water play.
  • Friday – Show & Tell at 3 pm: Families are invited to see what the kids have been working on all week. Campers share their new dance moves, art, and favorite camp moments in a kid-friendly “performance” style celebration.

Throughout the camp, students gain confidence, body awareness, and a deeper sense of rhythm, all in a supportive, upbeat environment. It is perfect for beginners and budding dancers alike—no previous experience required.
