Happy Feet Dance Camp 2022
Deepam Odissi Academy conducted our first ever dance camp for kids in June 2022. Happy Feet Dance Camp was a fun filled, 2 days experience for kids to discover their love for dance! Imagine a space where your child has an opportunity to learn new skills, make friends, read and listen to stories, create fun crafts; while educating themselves about dances of the world.
Dance is a universal language that unites cultures and countries with their own unique styles. At this dance camp, our little campers were educated and exposed to various forms of dance styles like Tango, Bachata, Flamenco and Indian dance forms such as Kathak, Bharatanatyam & Odissi.
Through child friendly dance themed movies, stories and craft activities, we exposed them to the endless possibilities of expression through dance.
A lot of inspiration for dance comes from nature and we introduced these concepts to them through hand gestures and movements imitating animal gaits. Our campers didn’t need to have any prior dance experiences.
