Jam Camp West

Youngsters with a fondness for melody and rhythm will find their hearts humming with joy at Jam Camp West. Tucked away amid the breath-taking redwoods of Northern California, this extraordinary camp invites kids aged 10-15 to delve into a week of music, dance, and vocals. Renowned as a fantastic alternative to traditional music camps, this vibrant playground of sound and movement exposes campers to the contemporary trends in music and dance. From jazz to hip-hop, from blues to gospel, Jam Camp West is a symphony of diverse musical styles. The melody doesn't end there; campers will also enjoy a medley of outdoor activities, from swimming to hiking. Unlike conventional music camps that rely heavily on sheet music, Jam Camp West is a stage where all classes are taught by ear. This approach ensures every participant, regardless of their skill level, can partake in a harmonious group experience. From instrumental ensembles to beatboxing, from songwriting to jazz dance, campers can choose from over 25 non-competitive workshops each day. The natural beauty of the redwood forest serves as the perfect backdrop, nurturing creativity and fun. In the midst of nature's own concert hall, campers can also enjoy outdoor crafts classes and group field games. This is not just about learning music; it's about forging friendships and creating lifelong memories. Jam Camp West is committed to being accessible to a broad spectrum of youth, with a limited number of scholarships available based on financial need rather than skill. So, if your child's heart beats to the rhythm of music and dance, Jam Camp West could be their perfect summer retreat.
