Learning Dance at Brant Lake Dance
At Brant Lake Dance Camp we encourage everyone to try as many different dance forms as they can while at camp. How about being your own Choreographer? Our Enchoreo program will teach you how to be a choreographer.
How Does Enchoreo Teach Choreography
Choreography is off-limits for most young dancers. There are two things that restrict opportunities to learning how to choreograph. The first one is that most throughout most of the dance world, you don’t get to become a choreographer until you’ve danced for many years. The second is that the chances of finding a group of dancers willing to follow your creative direction are very limited.
Since 1980 girls have been learning how to dance at Brant Lake Dance Camp. One reason of why we’re the best place in the country for this to happen is the access we provide to for girls to participate in Enchoreo in our first session. By learning how to teach and design movement, appreciation, girls actually elevate their understanding and comprehension of dance.
