North Texas Summer Dance Inetnesive 2026

Our Summer Intensive offers a comprehensive and immersive training experience designed for the developing and pre-professional dancer. Dancers will train across a wide range of styles including ballet, modern, contemporary, improvisation, hip hop, jazz, musical theater, and specialty classes — all intentionally curated to build both technical excellence and artistic depth.
Throughout the intensive, dancers will be challenged to expand their movement vocabulary, explore new creative processes, and grow in versatility as artists. Each day is designed to cultivate well-rounded dancers who are not only technically strong, but deeply connected to their artistry and expression.
This year’s intensive features an exceptional lineup of faculty, including KJ Dance directors and renowned guest artists such as Jason Luks, Justin Giles, John Cartin, Suzi Taylor, Jennifer Amburn, Kevin Jenkins, Kayla Kalbfleisch, Ali Deucher, Grace Buckley, Brooke Wendle, Peter Chursin, and Sarah Noland — bringing diverse professional experience and industry insight from across the country directly into the studio.
Open to dancers auditioning for KJ Dance performance companies, as well as dedicated dancers throughout the DFW area who are seeking a high-level summer training experience.

SUMMER CAMPS 2026

There is never a dull moment as our summer campers explore Ballet, Tap, Jazz, and Hip Hop in one jam-packed 4 day camp week! Camp is a great opportunity to explore one or many new dance styles and enhance your performance skills. Come make new friends and master your groove, team up for dance challenges, and bring out your inner artist as we craft the day away! Our studios transform into a summer wonderland as we embark on a journey of creativity and dance exploration. 

Each camp will end with a grand finale CAMP SHOW OFF for family on Thursday of each camp week from 11:40 - 12:00. We will begin each CAMP SHOW OFF promptly at 11:40am to respect the time of audience guests, campers, and the KJ faculty members.

Summer Camps are for boys and girls who are between the ages of 2.5 (potty trained) and 11. Camps will be divided into different groups based on the age of the campers enrolled in each session. Our camps run Monday to Thursday from 9:00-12:00.
