Join the Sister Kate Dance Company for a BRAND NEW 4-week class experience, where students will learn a classic 1930s-1960s style chorus line choreography to perform for the public.

Get ready to razzle-dazzle in this high-energy jazz dance class, inspired by classic movie soundies of the 1940s.

We’re cookin’ up Too Darn Hot —where snappy footwork, sharp moves, and that devlish style will have you feeling like you’re ready for Halloween and the big screen.

Try out being a chorus line dancer with us!

Sister Kate Dance Company Boot Camps are a chance for you to get to experience what it’s like to be a jazz-era chorus line dancer.

Sister Kate Boot Camp students smile at the end of a performance pose.

Over the course of 4 weeks, you will:

  • Learn an original full-length dance routine, choreographed by a Sister Kate dancer

  • Work on performance presence on stage

  • Connect with other eager and enthusiastic local dancers

  • Perform in front of a live audience where your friends & family can come cheer you on!

It’s a fast-paced wild and crazy dance experience, but we love it so much so that we’ve now taught 24 of them!

Boot Camp FAQs

  • So glad you asked! We’ll be dancing to an edited version of "Puttin’ on the Ritz” by Fred Astaire.

  • Not at all, but where’s the fun in that? If you do not wish to perform, but still wish to join the class for exercise purposes, you may attend and just dance on the side whenever formations happen.

  • Believe it or not, yes! It always works out and everyone has a load of fun :)

  • This is due to the rules of the performance venue.

  • It is highly recommended that you attend all classes to give your best performance.

    Please note, if you miss week 1, you’ll feel quite far behind as we learn most of the choreography that class.

    If you miss the final week, in general, we recommend you don’t perform, as the 4th week of class is also one of the most important.
