Si View Dance is a year round program

Spring/Summer Quarter
Summer is a time for FUN. It is camp time at Si View and in select weeks in July and August there are many dance camps to choose from. Each year we bring back by popular demand ‘The Little Princess Ballet Camp’. Combining dance, crafts and games we meet for one full week preparing for our final day show. We offer camps in jazz, ballet and musical theatre for ages 3-16 years old.

Fall Quarter
The fall quarter run’s from late September into early December. In this quarter students dance vocabulary is developed along with preparing for an informal Holiday Concert. We make fun simple costumes and perform at the Holiday Bazaar at Si View Community Center scheduled in early December which concludes our quarter. It is a fitting end to the beginning of the holiday season.

Winter Quarter
Our winter quarter in the longest and most involved. During the 4 and half months we prepare for our spring recital. A small recital fee is collected from participating students and we order stage costumes. Each year we have a different theme and all the classes perform together at Mt Si High School.
