Many teams fundraise: coordinate schedules, and pay a very, very large sum of money every year to attend a summer dance camp. Often, the primary objective for attending camp is to "get your choreography for the year." Consider the BPDS Team Membership as your method of securing all of your needed choreography. It may be a better option for you... |

The BPDS Team Membership costs less than the average cost of a small team of 12 attending a typical summer dance camp. |
|
|
|
|
12 complete routines, no repeated choreography – guaranteed |
Number of routines varies based upon the size of your camp, the number of instructors, the number of routines offered, the number of participants you have on your team |
| 160+ dance technique lessons over the course of the year – through a curriculum designed by BPDS’s professional staff of choreographers, instructors, and performers – The dance education continues all year |
An average of three to four technique classes with no curriculum basis and nothing to stimulate and promote learning throughout the entire year |
| Choreography instruction is paced – one complete routine a month – plus, with the abundance of teaching tools and learning materials, you can learn at your own pace, on your schedule |
All the choreography is taught in high-paced, quick classes during a mere three to four day time period |
| Dancers are free to teach, learn and use the material at a time that works for your schedule and your choreography needs – simply open the choreography binder and begin facilitation of the instruction |
You are limited to only being able to teach, learn, and use the material based solely on your dancers’ abilities to retain the material learned in their three-four day crammed session… by the time your team comes back to practice after the summer break, chances are, the dancers will have forgotten the large majority of the routines |
Not only do you receive the material through a highly developed curriculum, you receive specific agendas for each lesson along with Technique Music CDs (a music track for every exercise!), plus – your Technique Manual and Technique Instructional DVDs that detail each count of instruction, plus coaching/
teaching tips for every count, for every element in every lesson plan |
You do not receive any learning tools to take back to implement within your practices/
rehearsals throughout the year – just the memory of the instruction |
| If you don’t need or use all of the choreography or technique instruction – no worries, the tangible, complete set of teaching tools provided each month makes it easy to simply store your materials and save them for next year |
If you don’t use it – you lose it. The instruction is only in your dancers’ heads and as more time passes, or the dancers graduate and move on, the memory of the material fades, making it impossible for your organization to benefit from any potential uses |
