We are looking for talented dancers with a passion for classical ballet and other contemporary dance forms! Ms. Peck is thrilled to be returning to her home state of California and sharing her knowledge with the next generation of dancers. Her teachers were pivotal in her development and it is her dream to give future dancers the same kind of well-rounded training. Ms. Peck, along with internationally-renowned master instructors, will be teaching in all division levels throughout the week.

 

Our exciting summer program will consist of daily instruction in classical ballet, pointe/variations, contemporary, jazz, and hip hop with specialty classes in partnering, Broadway heels/ballroom and choreography. Seminars by industry professionals will include injury prevention, health and wellness, and how to audition.

Intermediate/Advanced division: ages 11-14 (minimum 1 year en pointe required)
