YaYa’s Academy summer camps are designed to nurture a love of movement and creativity in young children through structured yet playful programming. The camp atmosphere is upbeat, caring, and welcoming, helping campers feel comfortable as they explore dance and expressive movement for the first time or continue developing existing skills. Instruction focuses on positive reinforcement, imagination, and participation rather than performance pressure.
YaYa’s Academy summer camps are especially well-suited for school-aged children and teens who enjoy performing arts, staying active, and expressing themselves through movement. Campers participate in guided movement, music-based activities, and creative exercises that encourage self-expression and build confidence. Small group interactions help children develop social skills such as sharing, teamwork, and following classroom routines.

YaYa’s Academy summer camps operate as day camps only. Overnight accommodations are not provided.
Campers attend scheduled daytime activities and return home each day. There are no residential facilities such as cabins or dormitories. Families are responsible for daily drop-off and pick-up and for providing any personal items their child may need during the camp day. The day-camp format supports consistency and allows young children to maintain familiar routines at home.
