Grant School of Highland Dance

Grant Dancers dance camp 2026 was a huge success! My house and studio were filled with eager dancers ready to work hard and have fun!

We danced, we had technique sessions, we did theory, we had Grant Dancers challenges on breaks, they created their own choreography AND we had a special guest instructor to teach us how to square dance!

When it’s time to go at the end of day one and you hear … “it’s over ? Already? I feel Iike I just got here”…. You know it was a good day ❤️
