Register here for our 2024 Summer Dance Program!
We offer a variety of summer camps, classes, and intensives!
The theme for our 2024 Summer Dance program is “Set Free”. Whom the Son sets free is free indeed! What a wonderful statement of victory! When we put our faith and trust in Jesus and choose to live for His glory and not our own, we become His children and are set free. Through Jesus, we become free from sin, death, and the power of darkness. We become free to be who God has called us to be! Our summer camps, classes, and intensives are all designed with the theme of “Set Free” in mind.
