Community and belonging — diverse campers from around the world
ADTC is an awesome and diverse dance camp! It is a great balance of dance and traditional camp activities! It is a chance to bond with girls from all over and build friendships that will last a lifetime!
Community and belonging — inclusive environment at Vermont
My daughter felt welcomed by all of the teachers and campers from the moment we arrived. ADTC provides excellent dance instruction and skill building, and allows her to broaden her experience in many dance styles. Equally important is the focus on interpersonal skill building and character development in an atmosphere of inclusivity, respect, dignity and fun.
Setting — Vermont location near Stratton Mountain Resort
We offer sleepaway dance camp in a beautiful place where the pace of life is slower. At ADTC, mountains, forests and lakes will surround you. You'll raise your serotonin, boost your immune system, and do what you love all day long. Our sleepaway dance camp location is near a renowned destination resort. At ADTC, you'll have access to all of the activities you'd want to enjoy at camp, as well as all of the amenities you'd expect to find at a resort.
Cabin/dorm rooms — twin XL beds, traditional dorm-style at Stratton Mountain School
ADTC campers stay right on campus with our staff in residence halls with dorm rooms, lounges and laundry facilities. Hallway blocks are organized so that girls of similar ages are grouped together. ADTC staff is housed in rooms on each floor, providing campers with 24-hour supervision and support. I found the facilities to be a perfect setting for a camp.
Lasting impact — confidence and growth after Vermont
My daughter has attended the Stratton, VT location for three summers. She loves camp, and if it were up to her she'd never leave. My daughter attended this camp last summer in Stratton, Vermont. She came home very confident and full of life. She made so many new friends that she still keeps in touch with and felt it was a really supportive environment where even the most seasoned dancers supported the less experienced and younger girls. The week made her more independent and gave her a great sense of self.
Lasting impact — confidence visible at Friday Night Show
My daughter attended the Stratton VT Camp this summer and I could instantly tell a difference in her confidence level during the Friday Night Showcase in front of the parents…her shoulders were back, her posture was upright, and she had a huge grin on her face after each dance. I'm happy to say this new found confidence has continued over the months and she has become a bit of a social butterfly.
Lasting impact — 8 years at Vermont, dance program grows with the camper
My daughter has been attending American Dance Training camps in Vermont for EIGHT years. She refers to ADTC as her 'second home' she loves it that much and that is directly a result of the teachers and counsellors. The teachers and staff make the kids feel like they really belong there, regardless of their level. I'm always amazed at how much progress my daughter makes in a couple of weeks considering that this is not a competitive program and she dances competitively the rest of the year.
Parent communication — daily photos and responsive staff
Communication is fantastic and we love seeing the daily photos! I never had any trouble getting in touch with the staff and everyone was very friendly. I was very impressed with pre-camp and during camp communication – always prompt and helpful.
Food allergies and dietary restrictions — handled through CampDoc
If your child has medical dietary restrictions or food allergies, please make sure all information is fully detailed in her CampDoc profile. Our team reviews CampDoc information carefully prior to camp and works directly with each venue's dining staff as needed. We are experienced in handling many dietary situations and will do our best to support a safe and healthy camp experience for your daughter.
Homesickness — staff response and parent communication
My daughter felt uncomfortable and wanted to come home the next day of camp. Staff contacted me immediately via e-mail letting me know of the situation and we scheduled a phone conversation with staff the next day. Reassuring us that our daughter was fine and the staff spending the extra time to listen to her concerns and fear, she ended up staying for the remaining time and now she's more independent, more confident of herself and it crossed her mind to participate the next year as well.
Medication handling — stored and dispensed by medical staff
During check-in, our medical staff will meet with you and discuss your child's medication(s). ALL medications are kept in the director's office and dispensed according to your physician's instructions. All prescription medication must be brought to camp in the original pharmacy container with label. Please remember, campers may not keep ANY medications in their room, this includes things such as Tylenol, Advil, vitamins, eyedrops, etc.
Parent communication — campers' portal for photos and care packages
Their campers' portal made it very easy to keep up with pictures and what activities they were doing as well as be able to send notes and care packages to them.
