Classes / Summer Camps and Intensives
2025 Summer Session
“Sylvia”
Summer camps/intensives provide dancers time to focus on their ballet training. With daily classes and the opportunity to learn a variation (short dance) they will improve their muscle memory, musicality, and coordination while building the strength required for making this athletic art form look easy and beautiful.
Dancers are highly encouraged to attend the entire camp/intensive in order to gain the most benefits, but as with all classes at Strictly Ballet (except pointe) all camps and intensives have a drop in option. This means that dancers may join a camp/intensive on a daily basis instead of signing up for the entire week(s).
