"ADTC staffs a group of individuals from an assortment of professional dance backgrounds that share their abilities and positive outlooks. It is a small, personal atmosphere where my child isn't lost in a crowd of hundreds of dancers. She was happy and comfortable spending time with girls that have the same interests without it being competitive."
- Debra L. ('11 Parent)

THE ADTC DIFFERENCE
Great Teachers!
OUR #1 ASSET IS OUR AMAZING STAFF!
It takes a lot of enthusiastic, dedicated people to create American Dance Training Camps around the country. Each year ADTC staff (new and returning) undergo a rigorous hiring process that includes a 14-page application, interviews, employment verification, criminal background check, CPR & first aid certification, physical exam, health screening, skills verification, and a multi-day pre-camp staff training.
And it works! You couldn’t ask for more interesting, sensitive and enjoyable teachers and counselors.
Our team leaders understand that when they become an ADTC counselor, they accept one of the greatest responsibilities there is in life – to be entrusted with the health, well-being and education of young people. Their role is complex: teacher, friend, disciplinarian, mentor, dance instructor and protector to each of their campers – sometimes all at once! The living group is a family and our camp is a community.
Parents’ willingness to place their precious children in the sole care of ADTC is an expression of trust that our counselors accept with reverence.
In order to incorporate ADTC’s philosophy and objectives into each child’s camp experience, our counselors accept campers as they find them and recognize their worth as individuals. The measure of the success of our camping program is not in teaching dance alone, but in how we positively affect the lives of our campers.
Being a sensitive, effective counselor is more an art than science. Our staffers approach their jobs with a true love for kids, a firm sense of responsibility, a willingness to work hard and a commitment that allows them to accept nothing but the best from themselves.
