12 Days of Dance Idols – Day 11: Eleven Creative Collaborations
It’s Day 11 of our annual “12 Days of Dance Idols” series where we’ll spotlight performances from our 2022 dance camps. 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 eleventh day of dance idols, our campers gave to us, eleven creative collaborations
Eleven creative collaborations performing dances they choreographed themselves for our “dance idol” competition at dance camp! The “Glamorous” duet & “August” trio were performed at our VT dance camp, the “Toxic,” “Fabulous” & “Bad Girls” dances were performed at our CA dance camp, the “I Love It” & “Rain Dance” & “Can’t Stop Singing” performances were from our TX dance camp, the “Stand By You” & “Partition dances was performed at our MD dance camp, the “I Love It” trio was performed at our WI dance camp, and the “Speechless” duet was performed at our NC dance camp.

“My A.D.T.C. Superpower is Dreamer. I truly feel hard work pays off…dream BIG. Whenever someone tells me no, it pushes me to work even harder to prove them wrong. I want other girls to learn that anything is possible! No dream is too small. You’re writing your own story.”
