About

STEM From Dance Camp combines dance, coding, and STEM projects in project-based, hands-on experiences. The program includes daily movement, tech-powered creativity, and electrifying tech-infused dance performances where girls create something extraordinary.

• Ages: 8–18 years old
• Schedule: Three-week camp with programming Monday through Friday between 8:30 AM and 3:30 PM
• Price: $100 enrollment covers all costs and showcase performance tickets; the $100 Seat Deposit & Showcase Bundle is the only enrollment fee and is final and non-refundable; the true value of a girl’s participation in the summer program is up to $2,000.

STEM From Dance states that it is transforming the STEM field by empowering girls with the know-how, experience, and confidence to dream big in STEM through the power of dance, and that it focuses on ending race and gender disparity in STEM. Reported outcomes from the program include a 40% increase in confidence, a 50% increase in a positive view of STEM careers, and an 80% increase in STEM proficiency. Scholarships, financial assistance, and program resources are offered to help ensure more girls can participate regardless of financial circumstances.

Participants are asked to bring comfortable clothes for dancing and a water bottle to refill throughout the day, and all other supplies are provided onsite. Every program day, healthy snacks and lunch are provided.

Year-round programs at schools and community organizations integrate dance and STEM in electrifying tech-infused dance performances, and a partnership called the Youth STEM Funder Collaborative is granting $150,000 to bring the nationally recognized STEM From Dance program to Syracuse. One alumna, Crystal, shares that she uses her computer skills in real life by looking at everything as a step-by-step process, like the functions in coding. Another alumna, Franceluce, says she loves STEM From Dance because it is making her learn more about coding and that she wants to be either an environmental scientist or an engineer. A third alumna, Melodie, now a Georgia Tech Engineering major in the Class of 2026, says that being part of the STEM From Dance community helped her develop an interest in engineering that she is pursuing in college and gave her confidence to work toward the future she wants.
