Summer Camp During A Pandemic: Safe Summer Fun

by Erin Sforza

This past year has been challenging for dance studios to put it extremely lightly. From learning how to teach kids of all ages over Zoom, to figuring out if and how you can have a safe version of a recital to give your students closure, to re-opening safely with ever-changing guidelines that haven’t always been geared to our industry. Last summer, our studio was thankfully able to hold summer camps and classes while also debuting our new safety measures and pandemic guidelines. We learned a ton about what worked and what didn’t, and in the process created a great way for other studios to increase their revenue during the summer without having to put a lot of work into the “how” of it all. 

Our Penny Prima: Royal Tea Party Adventure Camp Package will give your studio the ability to have a summer camp for ages 3-6 that will not only delight your students, but give you the benefit of receiving a “Ready for Adventure” experience that takes the stress and preparation off the shoulders of teachers and studio owners. This camp was created to be adaptable to current CDC safety guidelines and can be adjusted as those restrictions are relaxed to make planning as easy as possible.

The  Royal Tea Party Adventure Camp includes immediate downloads of the logos and marketing resources that your studio will need to get the word out about the Penny Prima fun that will be coming to your students. Right now, many families are looking to fill the summer months for their kids and you want to make sure they are considering your programs!  Your Penny Prima Camp will include all the supplies needed to creatively engage your campers through movement, music, and storytelling:

  • A copy of Penny Prima: Once Upon a Time storybook
