DANCE CAMP

DANCE CAMP PROGRAM

Our dance camp program was created by camp director, dancer, and choreographer Kristin Alexander, a professor of dance at the College of Charleston, and artistic director of the Annex Dance Company. We offer daily classes at all levels in ballet, jazz, modern, tap, and hip-hop, and many performance opportunities in our dance concerts, camper cabarets, and 5:00 special programs.

Campers in any session can participate in our program; we offer beginning, intermediate, and advanced classes in all styles. We put on amazing concerts several times each summer, showcasing the work from all of our classes and programs, and the Intensives. Campers also perform in weekly camper cabarets and daily “5:00 specials.”

Check out our theater and performance spaces.

ADDITIONAL MOVEMENT CLASSES
We invite instructors in movement styles that, while not typically thought of as dance, expand the young dancer’s notion and experience of movement, and, alongside traditionally “dancerly” movements, become part of their physical vocabulary. Capoeira, Tai Chi, Qigong, and Aikido are just a few of the movement styles that we’ve explored with campers, and we try to offer new styles each summer, and each session.

"We cannot say enough about how wonderful it has been for her. She has made lots of new friends, improved her dance skills, her confidence on stage and blossomed and it has translated into wonderful experiences for her even outside of camp…In addition, she comes home with all kinds of new foods that she has discovered and wants to try to eat at home. We love Ballibay!"
