Alberta Ballet Summer Camps

Alberta Ballet summer camps are offered for any child, ages 3 – 12, who loves to dance. No dance experience is necessary! The week-long camps mix dance, movement, and summer fun for your kids. Every day will include some dancing, but also crafting, games, and other adventures.

Preschool Camps: The littlest dancers, ages 3 – 5, will enjoy a fun and engaging experience at half-day camps. Choose from morning or afternoon camps that feature dance, creative movement, and arts and crafts. Caring instructors promote teamwork, creativity, and a love for movement.

Youth Camps: Youth camps for kids ages 6 – 8 and 9 – 12, allow students to get creative and stay active with daily classes in ballet, contemporary, commercial jazz technique, and body conditioning. Kids will enjoy other fun summer camp activities, too. These camps run for full days.

Alberta Ballet also offers summer sessions for dancers with some experience. There are one-week sessions for dancers ages 10 – 11, who have a minimum of one year of ballet experience. For dancers ages 12 and up, there are sessions for those who have a minimum of three years of ballet experience.

Whether your child already knows they love ballet or wants to try something completely new, Alberta Ballet summer camps are a wonderful way to enjoy summer and keep moving. Register today to ensure your child’s spot. Pack up the enthusiasm and energy and dance on!
