ANC Dance Intensive

The ANC Dance Intensive has been canceled.

ANC Dance Intensive is the perfect way to get excited and prepared for dancing during the school year after a summer off.

ANC Dance Intensive is open to boys and girls entering 7th through 12th grades and is held in the Asplundh Field House dance studio and the Mitchell Performing Arts Center. Dancers of all levels, including beginners, are welcome to participate.

The ANC Dance Team teachers will lead technique-based warm-ups along with teaching a dance which the participants will perform for a video on the last day of the camp. This video will be edited and put on social media after camp is over. There will be special guest sessions in which students will be exposed to a new and different style of dance and will have the opportunity to learn from a new teacher.
