Belvoir offers professional instruction in classical ballet, pointe, modern, tap and jazz dance. Pilates is also a dance program elective. Dance classes are held in four fully equipped spacious studios. The modern and tap dance studios are open on all four sides to the beautiful Berkshire trees. Ballet classes have professional piano accompanists with fabulous sound systems in the jazz, tap and modern studios.

Beginning classes are available in all styles of dance for all age   groups. At Belvoir, It is as comfortable to be a beginning teen dancer as to be an advanced dancer. Dance majors may elect three or more challenging dance classes daily six days a week. Many dancers enjoy a daily or twice daily dance class with peers who share their age and experience. Girls focusing on art, theater or music can choose one or more dance classes to vary their days. Even pre professional dancers are challenged by the New York expert dance faculty. Less experienced dancers perform with each of their classes in the air-conditioned four hundred seat Jesup Theater at Belvoir. The  more advanced dancers perform on a professional stage , the Boland Theater,  at Berkshire Community College in Pittsfield.

Master classes with famous dancer/teachers such as Edward Villella, Milton Meyers, Chet Walker, and Marianne Bachman add excitement. Evening workshops in character dance, ballroom, salsa or yoga further enrich the campers dance experience. Trips to performances at nearby Jacobs Pillow with an occasional opportunity to perform there are exciting. Whether the camper intends to be a dancer or just enjoys a movement class, Belvoir has a suitable and comfortable dance program for her.
