Summer Break
Advanced Performance Camp: AGE 8 – 17
JULY 26 – 30
For the circus lovers who want to take their skills to the stage. After choosing between creating a solo, duo or trio act, your child will spend the week taking their circus skills even further as well as working with coaches to choose music, develop the theme, and create choreography. After five days of intense work (and just maybe some fun sprinkled in for good measure), they’ll present a virtual performance for family and friends to laugh, cheer, and be amazed.
This camp is by invitation or application only. Including video in the application is highly recommended unless we already know your child very well through regular NECCA classes. We will get back to you promptly following a review.
$380/week
5% sibling discount.
