The Creation of Junior / Youth Program

For a number of years, International DanceSport Breakthrough & Development Camp has offered an opportunity for dancers of all levels and ages to attend and receive quality instruction from some of the best coaches available. However, the increase of the interest in youth competitors attending IDBDC has proved the need for a separate program to be created at our camp.

In 2017 International DanceSport Breakthrough & Development Camp created a separate Junior / Youth Program

This gives an ability for Junior / Youth competitors to share the same floor with their peers and focus on their dancing. Additionally having a separate ballroom for young competitors gives a much better opportunity for the top level coaches to focus specifically on the needs of Youth competitors.

This approach has proven to be extremely popular and gave much better results for the dancers.

In fact it was so popular that many adult attendees expressed to add the lectures and program developed for the youth competitors to the main course of International DanceSport Breakthrough & Development Camp. Youth competitors are able to participate in all social activities that are offered to adult competitors including the Social and Pizza with the Pros.
