2025 Summer Camp Registration is now closed.

Please join us again next summer!

Come dance with us this summer!

Our 2025 camps offer outdoor play, creative dance classes, art projects and a final informal performance!

We offer camps at two locations:

1. All DANCE & NATURE CAMPS will take place at Heritage Park, 2300 Glade Road.

2. More dance-intensive camps will be held at Blacksburg Dance Theater (1711 N. Main St.) with occasional field trips.

*No dancer will be turned away due to financial need. Please reach out via email about scholarship information.
