Scholarships are available - please email info@rikudstudio.com Our Summer Camp is rooted in street and club dance culture. Each week, campers rotate through breaking, hip hop, and house, alongside visual arts experiences inspired by graffiti and movement. Campers are grouped by age for developmentally aligned programming: Ages 5–7: Play-Based Immersion Our younger dancers build foundations through rhythm stations, mini cyphers, movement games, and obstacle courses. Dance labs introduce breaking, hip hop, and house through playful technique and guided exploration. Creative blocks include graffiti art, name design, and street-art inspired projects. Outdoor time features playground visits, sprinklers, and neighborhood mini-walks. Afternoons include choice-based exploration in dance, art, or building activities, ending each day in a closing circle. Ages 8–14: Cultural Lab + Skill Development Older campers deepen technique through focused training blocks in breaking, house, and hip hop. They rotate through choreography lab, freestyle development, groove drills, and conditioning. Cultural sessions explore the roots of street and club dance, while art + design labs investigate letter structure, tag evolution, and creative expression. Neighborhood immersions and guest workshops expand their understanding of movement within community. The day culminates in crew rehearsal, mentorship, and battle strategy. Movement happens all day — in the studio, outdoors, and through creative practice. Even visual arts components are grounded in rhythm, spatial awareness, and embodied expression. We maintain an intentionally small camp model with three pods of six campers. Each pod is supported by a dedicated counselor and teen assistant, allowing for close supervision, strong relationships, and a deeply supportive environment. Regular outdoor excursions include nearby playgrounds and splash pads, with sprinklers and water play for younger campers. Permit pending.
