Young boys learn animal poses and roles in traditional dance.

Traditional instruments are an essential part of Cambodian Dance. For many children, this will be their first exposure to these instruments.

Students have fun learning about role playing as an essential part of Cambodian traditional dance.

Dancing the dance.....students demonstrate their new skills in a performance.

End of term performance where newly accomplished dancers showcase their talent.

One of the greatest achievements of the Summer Arts Camp is to create peer role models for the students. Our apprentice teachers themselves come from disadvantaged backgrounds. They have worked long and hard to become fine dancers. Students can see first hand that education and dedication opens new opportunities.
