What To Bring/Wear:

There are no uniform requirements for summer camps, but students should wear clothing they can easily move in. Any color workout clothing or dance attire is acceptable. Dance shoes are needed and are specified in each camp description below.

We welcome all hair types and textures at CBA (see our IDEA page!) and require students to have their hair secured in a ballet bun or pulled back neatly off of the neck and out of the face. Dancers should have freedom for full movement during jumps, leaps, and turns!

Each day, please send your dancer with:

  • Dance shoes with their name labeled inside or on the bottom
  • A water bottle with their name labeled on it 
  • For all daytime camps that are longer than 60 minutes, please bring a snack or lunch (nut-free, please) as students will have snack/lunch time.
