12 Days of Dance Idols – Day 8: Eight Contemporary Solos
This is Day 8 of our “12 Days of Dance Idols” series, where we’ll spotlight performances by our 2020 dance idols at our virtual dance camps. Since we weren’t together in-person this summer, we’ll also highlight dance idol performances from our 2019 overnight camps AND do a fun countdown of our top dance idol from each of the 12 years prior, 2007 – 2018…
ADTC Dance Idol is a fun competition that takes place Thursday night at every ADTC location… it is THE highlight of the week (other than the Friday Night Show) for ADTC campers and staff. You’ll get to choreograph & perform your own solo, duet or group dance (if someone else choreographed your dance, you must give them credit!), and 1st, 2nd & 3rd place winners are invited to perform their piece in our Friday show.
On the eighth day of dance idols, our campers gave to us, eight contemporary solos

“My ADTC Superpower is the Team-Player. I want to inspire other girls to know that it’s okay to be scared and there are always people around you who will help you as long as you ask for it. I also want girls to strive to be their best and chase their dreams.”
More About Our Dance Camp Mission
American Dance Training Camps is a company inspired by and created for strong girls. Doing what we love enables us to embody, model & teach our sixteen character values, or “movement manifesto.”
The ADTC Movement Manifesto is one way we promote our values within our dance camp community. It is an ever-evolving collection of bold thoughts that allow for some real conversations to take place at camp and throughout the year.
