Summer Dance Camp 2010

Click here to download Summer Camp Enrollment Form

ASB's Dance Camp is scheduled for three weeks: July 12-16, July 19-23, and July 26-30. Students from ages 4 to 18 may register for one, two or all three weeks. The camp welcomes students of all abilities and backgrounds.

Students may attend one, two, or all three weeks, as each week has a self-contained curriculum. Students from ASB and other schools are welcome, as well as students new to dance. Students will have opportunities to take classes in ballet, repertory and variations, modern, flamenco and jazz from preeminent teachers in those genres at the ASB studios.

We have a full and exciting schedule planned for all participants. Our faculty will include Patricia Estorino, Audra Carabetta, and Eve Agush.

This year we are pleased to announce that Acton Village Art, located just across our parking lot, is offering summer art programs that dovetail with our dance camp, so that working families will be able to access nearly full day childcare through the combining of our programs. Please call Village Art for a list of their offerings during our camp weeks.
