Summer Programming

Ages 3-17

PPI’s Performing Arts Summer Camp & Dance Intensive is a one-of-a-kind arts-based program. Students take their main, intensive courses in the following genres: ballet, contemporary, stretching/conditioning, leaps/turns, modern (Horton), jazz, hip-hop, tap, musical theater, and choreography.

Students also take elective classes: art, music/instrumentation, vocal training, tumbling, creative writing, poetry, and healthy eating/lifestyle.

All classes are on a block-rotating schedule. Courses are taught by professional artists and instructors from across the country. Students will participate in a culminating showcase on July 19th to show off their acquired skills to friends and family.

Fall placement letters and RIZE Youth Company invitation letters will be distributed at the end of camp
