Summer Camp FAQs
WHO CAN SIGN UP?
We welcome campers 6-12 years old. Campers will be divided into groups based on their age. To keep it simple, Ballet Austin will use June. 1, 2025, as the date to classify a campers age.
WHEN DO THE CAMPS TAKE PLACE?
We are hosting one (1) one-week, half-day summer camp inspired by Musical Theatre classics and hits alike. The Broadway Kids Camp will take place on Monday, June 2nd through Friday, June 6th, 2025! On Friday, we will have a Performance showcasing what your camper learned that is open for parents and siblings.
WHAT ARE THE DAILY HOURS OF SUMMER CAMP?
Summer camp runs from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.. We ask that campers be dropped off between 8:30 am and 8:45 am to ensure we start the day promptly at 9 am for group warm-ups.
HOW MUCH DOES SUMMER CAMP COST?
Enrollment for each camper costs $350
WHAT IS AN AVERAGE DAY LIKE?
Each day, the goal is to prepare an awesome and fun showcase for each family and friend coming to attend the “All Aboard for Broadway” Performance at the end of the week. Campers will begin and end each day all together in the Armstrong Connelly Studio. Here, they will learn choreography to an Opening Number for Friday’s Performance, as well as vocals and staging for the Finale. During the rest of the day, campers will rotate between two other studios to learn additional group numbers specific to their age group and have one snack time all together in between.
The activities of the day will include the learning of two dance numbers, with one number of the two being taught vocally, arts and crafts, and plenty of fun collaborative theatre games. The end of the day will be dedicated to learning the closing number with everyone all together.
Dance numbers will be taught by two separate dance instructors and all vocal parts outside of the opening and closing number, will be taught during the music portion of their group rotation.
WHAT WILL MY CHILD NEED TO ATTEND SUMMER CAMP?
Campers will have one (1) snack break. We ask parents to prepare their child’s snack each day, as exiting the building will not be permitted. We ask parents to refrain from providing their child with any peanut products in the event any of the other student possesses a peanut allergy.
Following the first day, students will be provided with themed stickers to label their Kids Camp Folders. They will also be told what props (if any) to bring from home for their performance.
Campers will also need a reusable water bottle.
Additionally, campers can bring a blanket to get comfortable during the quiet activity when time permits. However, we do ask campers to leave personal toys, craft supplies, and objects at home or in their car.
WHAT SHOULD MY CHILD WEAR TO CAMP?
Campers should come dressed in comfortable dancewear and/or activewear and shoes. Ballet slippers are not required. This includes: leggings, sweat pants, and sneakers. If a camper has jazz shoes and/or tap shoes, they are strongly encouraged to bring those to change into when the Instructor permits.
