Performance Routines
BDT will provide two performance routines at each camp. These routines are taught complete with formations, ripples and showmanship! You can choose to divide your team in half so that you can learn both routines or you can choose to send your whole team to one so that it is completely performance ready depending on your needs.
Routine Showcase
At the end of each camp, we provide a routine showcase that friends and family are invited and encouraged to attend. Each of the routines that are learned throughout the week will be performed and coaches can video so that the material will be readily available when you get home. This is not an evaluation! It is all about cheering each other on and showcasing the great things the dancers learned throughout the week.
Team Performance Night
Teams are invited to bring a routine from home to perform on the first night of camp. This is a fun, non-competition event! Once each team has performed, every team gets to vote for the “Most Entertaining Performance” and a Performance Night Champion is crowned! Friends and family are encouraged and welcome to attend Team Performance Night!

Warm Up
The most important thing a dancer can do is learning to warm up properly. If your body is in tip-top condition its potential is endless. We will teach your team the proper way to stretch and how to get results that will benefit you in your coming year.
