Overview
We are a performing and fine arts summer camp located in the heart of the beautiful Adirondack Park of upstate New York. Since 1969 our dance department has taught all styles and levels of dance to children ages 8 to 16 from all over the world. We produce wonderful dance productions each session and we produce many musicals that require choreography.
We are looking for a dance instructors/choreographers who is available from June 22 to August 30 (or close to those dates) and would enjoy being in the Adirondack Park (mountains, trees, lakes, great weather and the cleanest air in America) for the summer to inspire the next generation of dancers. We prefer staff with a range of styles you teach and previous choreography experience is preferred. The salary is good for a summer position, there will be days off and in addition you will live at camp for free, so free food, accommodations and we do your laundry for you.
We run a non-competitive philosophy here so we welcome beginners to advance students. The dance production are very beautiful, thought provoking and contemporary in spirit and tremendous energy. Each dance instructor will be responsible for a section of the dance show so you will have a creative input which is unusual for a first time instructor in a dance department. Our 4 other dance teachers are very positive, warm and friendly support. In addition to dance, Long Lake offers, theater, music, circus, fine arts, film, rock bands and fun outdoor sports. Each camper at Long Lake chooses their own schedule so every dancer learning from you is 100% committed and ready to work really hard. To apply please call 914 693 7111 and ask for Geoff Burnett.
