Set on a 200-acre private lakefront property in the heart of New York’s Adirondack Mountains, Long Lake Dance Camp offers more than just dance classes—it cultivates confidence, independence, and lifelong friendships. Teens at Long Lake learn from professional dancers, choreographers, and instructors who guide them through a comprehensive curriculum, including ballet, jazz, contemporary, hip-hop, and choreography workshops.

The 2026 program features flexible scheduling options, allowing teens to immerse themselves in dance intensives while also exploring theater, music, and other areas of the performing arts. Morning sessions can include technique, skill-building, and conditioning, while evenings offer opportunities for musicality, choreography, ensemble work, and theater rehearsals and other dance styles. Every day is different—each camper can create a schedule based on their interests and goals, ensuring a unique and personalized experience throughout the summer.

Long Lake Dance Camp emphasizes both individual growth and collaboration.
