Ailey Camp

Ailey Camp, run by the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, at the Adrienne Arsht Center in Miami is one of its
eleven dance camps held around the country. Ailey Camp is an innovative summer program designed to serve
inner-city children grades six through eight. It is not a training ground for professional dancers but, instead uses
dance as a vehicle for developing self-esteem, self-discipline, creative expression and critical thinking skills. "I
will not use the word can't to define my possibilities," is the Ailey Camp daily affirmation. The curriculum includes
daily technique classes in ballet, Horton-based modern dance, jazz, and tap. The campers also participate in
personal development and creative communications classes. Topics of discussion during the personal
development classes include goal setting, self-government, nutrition, conflict/resolution, career
development and self-image. For more information click on the website link below.
