Summer Camps
EDE company dancers and instructors who have extensive experience with education for youth teach these fun and engaging summer camps. All of the camps have fun themes and incorporate a variety of dance styles. The camps are offered at the EDE Center for Dance locations in Rochester Hills and in Birmingham at the Birmingham Bloomfield Art Center.
The professional faculty and staff supervise the campers. AM and PM Latchkey is available at an extra charge, and can be arranged by calling the EDE Center to register at (248) 852-5850. Dancers in Camp 2 and Camp 3 will need to bring their own lunches. The center will supply drinks and snacks at appropriate times. No previous experience is necessary, however if children have had previous dance instruction, faculty members will provide a challenging and creative experience on an individual basis. Enrollment is limited, so early registration is advised. An informal performance for parents, family and friends will be held on the last day of each camp.
