About 80 students from 15 district schools are being challenged by the choreography of professional dance tutors Nick Power, Kim Peade and Tanya Mitford.
Leeton High School student Taylor Hunter-Boyd said the camp was a new experience that provided a lot of technique and the chance to try a lot of different styles and genres.
Taylor learnt how to do certain moves differently to the ways she had been taught.
“The professionals make it a bit easier to understand,” she said.
James Fallon High School dance and visual arts teacher Katrina Joss said dancing was both a creative and physical outlet, “not just great for the mind but the body as well”.
“Dancing makes kids very well-rounded,” she said.
