WANT TO DANCE THIS SUMMER?
Join us for our Summer Dance Camp at Sacred Heart School!
During this week-long Summer Dance Camp, students enrolled will take a total of 6 classes; two Ballet, two Jazz, and two Hip Hop. Additionally, at the end of the week, students will participate in a group showcase on Friday, July 14th. This program is geared toward students who are passionate about dance, and are excited to express themselves through movement! Whether it's your students' 1st experience with dance and they're looking to jump right into movement, or it's their 100th dance class and they want to enhance their strong foundation, this program is for all levels and capabilities. Students enrolled will receive a quality dance education from the faculty that teaches at Sacred Heart School, similar to the experience NRD offers during the school year!
