Week 2

Our Books and Ballet Camp for kindergarten through 2nd grade is the perfect way for your little dancer to explore the world of ballet! During the camp, your child will learn the basics of ballet techniques and develop their own creative expression. They will also choreograph a ballet based on a book, so they can explore the art of storytelling through movement. Our dance instructor, Ms. Koeppel, is experienced and passionate about teaching the fundamentals of ballet. We provide a safe and supportive environment for learning, and our classes are designed to be fun and engaging. We strive to help your child develop self-confidence and a love of dance. Books and Ballet Camp is the perfect opportunity for your child to explore the beauty and grace of ballet.
