NUTCRACKER Camp

For the past 20 years, children have enjoyed the unforgettable magic of The Nutcracker with these summer camps. Led by Carlee Snyder Chastagner and Rosalind Avrett Jones, students will explore, in depth, the choreography, music and specialties of this timeless holiday tradition as presented by Colton Ballet Company, learning a different section of Nutcracker choreography each day.

 Learning a Ballet Camp

Grade II-III students

Students will expand their formal classical ballet training and build confidence and creativity by gaining the understanding of the ins and outs of what goes into learning a ballet. Dancers will refine their technique and learn a choreographed piece specifically curated for this one-week program. Students will have the opportunity to learn the importance of staging, learning choreography and performance. At the end of the week, dancers will perform the ballet piece they have learned for family and friends during a small performance held at the studio.
