Santa Monica, CA, USA
Popstar Dance Camp is a creative, performance-focused day camp held in Santa Monica, designed for kids who enjoy dancing, music, and being on stage. The atmosphere is energetic, encouraging, and inclusive, helping campers feel comfortable expressing themselves while learning new skills. Instructors create a positive space where effort, confidence, and fun matter just as much as technique.
The program centers on dance training inspired by pop music and performance culture. Campers learn age-appropriate choreography, work on rhythm and coordination, and practice performing as part of a group. Sessions typically include warm-ups, guided dance instruction, and time to rehearse routines. Creative games and movement-based activities are mixed in to keep the day lively and engaging.
This camp is especially appealing to elementary-age children, typically around ages 5–10, who enjoy music, movement, and imaginative play. Younger campers benefit from playful instruction and clear routines, while older campers enjoy more detailed choreography and performance-focused activities. No previous dance experience is required—everyone is encouraged to participate at their own pace.
What makes Popstar Dance Camp special is its focus on confidence and self-expression. Campers don’t just learn dance steps; they learn how to perform, work as a team, and feel proud of themselves both on and off the dance floor.
