ABA Summer 2026

I hope you choose to dance the summer of 2026! We operate on punch cards for the month of July and August – you can come to any class of your level as your schedule allows. Come 3 times one week, and none the next. Many levels are combined. Remember, coming to the “lower level” is just as, and sometimes more, difficult and beneficial as the more advanced class. They work foundational training. More advanced classes can be inspiring. I highly recommend that you do a mix of lower level and higher level classes! For example, if your student is in Ballet II they can come to any Ballet I/II, Ballet II, or II/III class this summer. 

A six-class punch card is $98 ($80 for Creative Movement and Pre-Ballet). A 12-class punch card is $150. Also, new this year, we will offer the Unlimited Card! For $320 your dancer can take as many classes as they want! During the school year, I have a lot of students who take 5, 6 or more classes a week. These dancers would go through at least 3 12-class punch cards if they kept dancing at the same pace. For older students who want to double-down on your training, I highly recommend you do an unlimited card. I hope you take advantage of these offers!

 

Summer classes meet July 6 – Aug 20.  The studio will be closed Aug 21 – Sept 9. Fall schedule starts Sept 10.

Summer Camps! 

The summer intensive schedule is up and ready for enrollment. In your ABA Profile search “summer” and all of the different options should pop up. Here are guidelines for what you should register for:

Pre-Ballet will be July 20-22 from 9:30am-11:30am. It is most suitable for dancers entering Pre-Ballet I and Pre-Ballet II. It is $85.

Beginning Ballet will be July 13-16 from 9:30am-12:30pm. It is suitable for dancers moving into Ballet I, Ballet IIA, and Ballet II. It is $185.

Advanced Ballet will be August 10-14 from 9:30am-1:00pm. It is most suitable for Ballet IV and V students. It costs $230.

FREE Boys Ballet will be August 17-20 from 9:30am-12:30pm. It is suitable for boys aged 8+. This will be a fun class. I will keep a lot of things simple for the newer dancers, but we will do a lot of jumps and turns that are always good for the more experienced dancers to work on. (Aug 11-14)

All camps will have a performance for friends and family on the last day!

Please sign up now! Summer is a great time to dance. These intensives are fun, and a highlight for a lot of the dancers! In addition to these week-long training sessions, we will also have afternoon and Saturday classes that you can take using a punch card, allowing your dance schedule to be very flexible. Fit it in when you can around your other summer activities and vacations.

For dancers that are getting older and more serious, and strongly encourage you to continue your dance training over the summer for safety reasons. A lot of strength can be lost if long breaks are taken. It makes someone more prone to injury when they return. Plus, it is very discouraging returning and feeling like friends have improved.
