Plot twist: They came for dance camp… and left with a new best friend. 💙👯♀️✨
Sure, we teach dance, theatre, and acro. But some of the best things that happen at DDA Summer Camp are the friendships made between snack breaks, dance games, and giggle-filled rehearsals.
Because summer memories are fun… but summer memories with your besties are even better. 💖
Four camps. Four shows. Countless smiles🤩
Our campers spent the week learning, making new friends, dancing, and creating some amazing performances for their families yesterday!💙
The talent was incredible, the energy was nonstop, and the fun was off the charts. 💙🌟
Summer at DDA is just getting started!💖

🎟️ Step right up… it’s SHOWTIME!🤩
Our campers for Lil Broadway, Cirque De Dawson, DDA Jr University and College Prep have spent the week dancing, creating, rehearsing, and working so hard, and today they finally get to take the stage for their end-of-week performances!

Looking back at our recital on throwback Thursday and feeling so proud of these incredible young artists.
Dance is more than steps and costumes. It’s creativity. It’s confidence. It’s storytelling. It’s children learning how to express who they are and share something beautiful with the world.💙
Every dancer who stepped on that stage created a little piece of art, and we couldn’t be prouder of the courage, passion, and heart they brought with them. 🌟
Here’s to the dreamers, the creators, and the artists. What a beautiful recital it was. 🤩💖
Florida: 🔥☀️🥵
DDA Summer Camps: 😎❄️✨
While the sidewalks are melting and your car feels like an oven, our campers are living their best lives in a perfectly cool 72 degrees.
Sunglasses? Check.
Chill vibes? Check.
Dance parties in the A/C? Absolutely.
Come for the fun. Stay because it’s too hot outside. 🤩
Thank you 5!🌟
Behind every great performance is a great backstage team. ✨
Here’s Mr. Jaden teaching our actors one of the most important theatre skills there is — how to manage their time backstage, work together as a team, and keep a show running smoothly under pressure.
We are so lucky to have a teacher who grew up performing and working with world-class entertainment companies like Disney, Universal, and Nickelodeon, bringing real industry experience straight to our students. 🌟
Because being a great performer isn’t just about what happens on stage… it’s about what happens behind the curtain too. 🎬
💖✨ It’s giving… Popular. ✨💖
One minute they’re in camp rehearsal clothes, the next minute they’re ready to take Oz by storm. 💚
Honestly? The only thing more dramatic than a costume reveal is the applause that follows.🤩
Having a BLAST this summer with Waz Theatre’s amazing summer programming!
Warning: Side effects of DDA Summer Camp may include… ☀️😂
✔️ Making new besties
✔️ Random bursts of dancing in public
✔️ Coming home exhausted (you’re welcome, parents 😉)
✔️ Talking nonstop about camp all day long
Week 1 was an absolute BLAST and we’re just getting started! 🎉💙🌟
If your dancer is still spending summer perfecting the art of saying “I’m bored,” it’s time to fix that. A few spots remain in select camps, and trust us… this is where the summer magic is happening.💖💙💚

Still smiling from DDA Rewind🤩 Here’s a few amazing highlights!
We had SO much fun celebrating 20 years of dance at the Straz and could not be more proud of our Stars.
Now it’s time to dream big, train hard this summer, and get ready for an amazing Season 21.🙌
Let’s go, Stars! 🌟💖💚💙
