## Mini Dance Camps

Dance camp · Ages 4–7

Each summer the studio runs three-week mini dance camps for ages 4 to 7, focused on ballet and lyrical technique. Camps meet Tuesdays and Thursdays for 45 to 60 minute sessions in the afternoon, with separate groups for ages 4-5 and ages 6-7 in July and August. They suit children learning dance for the first time as well as those building skills. The 2026 camps have ended and dates for next summer are not yet posted. The studio also runs drop-in summer classes for ages 10 and up and offers an Unlimited Summer Dance Pass. Camps are held at the Village Homes studio on the east side of Davis.
