to n i a r T AMAZ E

Just For Kix is thrilled to bring our youth camp dance experience to a community near you!

We specialize in teaching children how to dance. But more than that, we bring kids together to teach them to work hard, how to work as a team, and most importantly, how to have fun!

Just For Kix has a long-lasting tradition of offering youth dance camps!

With 31 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!

We break our classes up by grade 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 Presents

SOLO DUET & SMALL GROUP COMPETITION Adding to the fun of camp is competing in the solo and small group competition. 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 this united goal.

• Challenge you to work on your confidence and performance abilities.

Dancers have the option to bring a prepared routine to camp to take center stage! It’s a great opportunity to become a stronger performer. Every dancer is encouraged to participate.

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 medals. The finalists are announced at the final camp show and will then perform for trophies.** • Dancers can compete in both Solo & Small Group categories, however there is a $15 charge; per person, per category. * Cartwheels and walkovers are allowed. ** In situations where there are too many dancers, only the winner may perform. JFK costumes are OK.
