Summer Dance Camps 2026

June 15 to July 10, 2026

The perfect summer camp for children and young adults with a passion for dance. City Ballet offers two 2-week sessions so Dance Camp can fit into every family’s busy summer schedule.

Our Summer Dance Camps offer a broad range of age and level-appropriate dance classes and workshops. Classes include ballet technique and creative dance for Pre/Kinder and Ballet 1 students, and ballet technique, turns & allegro, and jazz for Ballet 2 and 3 students. Workshops for levels Pre/K through Ballet 3 may include ballet crafts, stage make-up, and other dance related activities. Ballet 4 level students receive ballet technique, turns & allegro, and pointe and pre-pointe classes. Levels 5 and 6 also receive ballet technique and pointe, as well as variations and contemporary.
