Campers are welcome to dress up for each theme day, but not required. Dance shoes are encouraged but not required, socks are acceptable. Our Kid’s Camps are open to the public, so if you are a current KAD dancer, bring a friend (or two, or three!).

MONDAY: Demon Hunter Dance Off! 🪩🎤
Are your kiddos still obsessing over K-Pop Demon Hunters? They will join Huntr/x and Saja Boys on an epic adventure on Monday. It is sure to be GOLDEN! We may even have some SODA POP to celebrate a demon defeat!
TUESDAY: To Infinity, And Beyond! 🧸🪀🚀
Toy Story 5 is hitting theaters, and campers will be ready for adventure with Buzz, Woody, Jessie, and all their friends! Taylor Swift’s new track for Toy Story 5 may make an appearance while we dance…we just have to listen in case “Andy’s Coming!”
WEDNESDAY: Minion Mayhem! ⭐️🍌
It’s ALL about the yellow on Wednesday! Minions & Monsters is coming to theaters in July, so your camper can prep to see it by busting out their best moves with Gru. Don’t fret: Bananas may be on the menu. Don’t forget your overalls and goggles!
THURSDAY: Sensational 6-7! 6️⃣7️⃣📱
We know, we know…it’s taken the world by storm. Get away from the trend for the day and let us handle the kiddos yelling out the 2 numbers that you MIGHT be tired of hearing, but they LOVE saying! TikTok dances and trending songs might make an appearance, so campers can hit their best moves all day long!
Can’t make Peoria Camp? WASHINGTON Kid’s Camp is July 13-16, and registration is open!
Now that we’ve had some time to recover from Recital Weekend, we want to extend a heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who came out to support our dancers and to everyone who made our 41st Season possible. 🩷 To the parents, grandparents, family, and friends who cheered on their dancers all year long, we appreciate your support of Kim’s Academy of Dance. We could not do what we do without each and every one of you. From getting your students to class on time, to ensuring they are ready to take the stage, your support is truly what has made this possible for 41 years. Thank you for allowing Kim’s Academy to be your dancers’ home this year, and we hope to see all of you in the fall! 🧑🏻🩰🥰
