Make New Dance Friends
We surround dancers with over 40 experienced and personable professionals. Our staff has the technical know how, the proven methods and inspiration needed to motivate and help dancers achieve their goals.
Campers will get the chance to dance and perform with other dancers from other surrounding towns. Make new friends with other campers that you have never danced with before. You may learn new skills simply by dancing with new people!
The tradition continues
Just For Kix has a long-lasting tradition of offering youth dance camps! With 34 years of experience, your child is guaranteed to have a great time while improving their technique. If your son or daughter has never danced before, this is a great opportunity to introduce them to the dance world!
Class Structure
We break our classes into levels so that everyone can be challenged in their own way. Dancers will learn a variety of routines and get the opportunity to try styles they may have yet to be exposed to! The best part about dance camp is that dancers get the opportunity to learn from new teachers that can bring a different perspective to their learning process like never before.
BRING A FRIEND
Camp is always more fun when you are with a BUDDY. As a fun summer tradition, many dancers invite cousins or friends to join them at camp. Have no fear, if you don’t come with a friend, we will make sure to find you a buddy when you arrive!

Just For Kix Camp T-shirt Day

Adding to the fun of camp is competing in the solo and small group competition. It’s a great opportunity to become a stronger performer. Every dancer is encouraged to participate. If you decide not to participate, it is great fun to watch and cheer on the competitors.
PeRFORMING A SOLO WILL... Help you to become a stronger dancer.
WHY? Because YOU have to carry your performance and have to work hard to do it on your own. It is a great way to increase your confidence. Getting out in front of others by yourself will force you to work at a higher level to insure that you RISE to the occasion.
PeRFORMING IN A DUeT OR SMALL GROUP will... • Challenge your teamwork skills forcing you to learn to work well with others as a team. • Challenge your creative abilities. You and your friends will have to reach deep inside to create the ultimate routine. • Challenge your abilities by working toward one united goal. • Challenge you to work on your confidence and performance abilities.
Rules: Interested dancers must come to camp with their routine prepared to perform to music on the first day. Solo (1) & Small Groups (2-5) dancers compete in the grade they will be going into in the next school year. (This is based on the oldest member in a small group.) • No gymnastics or suggestive choreography may be used.* • We also require respectable music that has appropriate lyrics. • Routine can be no longer than 90 seconds and cannot be a Just For Kix class routine. • All dancers receive a ribbon of participation. The top division placements will receive a medal. Winners or each division will perform at the final camp show. • Dancers can compete in both Solo & Small Group categories, however there is a $20 charge; per person, per category. * Cartwheels and walkovers are allowed.
Things to Remember!
Get prepared for the Solo & Small Group Competition (if you’d like to participate)! Lunch (if you need one) and snacks! Lots of beverages. Register Early! Camps Fill Quickly. Bring money for the RED CARPET camp store. Remember your Theme Day props and clothing. Dance shoes.
Remember to Pack a Lunch, Water & Snacks Each Day!!* *if a lunch is needed
It’s Showtime! On the last day of Camp a free show is held for the dancers to perform. Dancers wear their CAMP T-SHIRT and any bottom including: leggings, shorts or jazz pants. Dance shoes are required, too!
Dancers make the difference. If you see someone without a friend at camp, reach out and include them. Many lasting friendships are made at camp. Just For Kix dance programs and classes are built on mutual respect for teammates, instructors, and those we compete with. This foundation provides Just For Kix the opportunity to inform, educate and influence youth about bullying.

T S e B R U O Y DANCe ! D e D R A W AND Be Re At all of our youth camps, you will have the opportunity to be rewarded with one or all of these exciting and fun ribbons! Dancing your best and working hard is definitely one way to earn yourself one of these ribbons, however; there are other ways you can get your hands on a ribbon as well. For instance, if you are demonstrating good sportsmanship or help a fellow dancer who is struggling with a move, or even for trying something new and pushing yourself to grow as a dancer are just some of the ways!

Dancers perform in both the pregame and halftime at the Raymond James Stadium, home of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. See Clearwater Beach, Disney, Busch Gardens, Formal Dinner Cruise, and more. Even if your community does not go as a group, dancers can go with their parents. Thousands of dancers have trusted Just For Kix for over 30 years with providing educational and imaginative bowl performance opportunities for dancers in grades 2nd to 12th from all skill levels.

I feel all dancers should experience this at least once in their career,” says Cindy Clough. “I love it because we really get a connection with the dancers and families who attend. My husband and I have spent every New Year’s Eve since 1988 with teenagers. It is so fun to see their faces when they experience all the events of the week. I also love the parents. I have so many neat stories, such as a dad standing at the side of the field with tears running down his face as he watched his child perform. Priceless.
