"My daughter has traveled for Socapa's dance sessions for the past 3 years from Istanbul, Turkey and she cant wait for her her final 4th summer next year before she heads for college scholar programs. Socapa New York has offered her experience beyond the dance training. She has met beautiful friends, worked with extremely qualified instructors. The professional setting and dance shoots has been a great exposure which she cannot get anywhere else. Also, the online portfolio will be very handy when it comes to college aplications. I as a mother would not think twice when recommending."

"SOCAPA was the best summer dance intensive my daughter has ever attended, and it provided the necessary artist’s environment she needed as she explores and makes big life decisions as she enters her senior year in high school. The videos of solo and group dances will be amazing for the college applications! As far as the actual dancing went, she was pushed to her best limits and they helped her explore out of her comfort zone in such a way that she was able to find a different side of herself as a dancer. Thank you for an amazing summer dance experience, SOCAPA!"

"As a parent of a Sophomore who attended SOCAPA’s dance program at the Manhattan campus last summer and will hopefully attend again this summer, I highly recommend the camp. The different art departments and even campuses attend each other’s pre-showcase performances and the groups attend various New York City performances and activities together, making for a very fun, friendly, supportive environment. The variety of evening events is amazing, including things like multiple art venues, a Broadway show, Coney Island, and other local fun spots. And the end of camp performances which include all the art forms are well done and showcase the hard work put in by the students during their days at camp."

"Our Daughter attended the NYC Manhattan campus 3 week dance conservatory program in the summer of 2019. I was originally nervous at the thought of sending her to the big city for a summer camp, but it became obvious that the program managers and counselors were up to the task of keeping our daughter safe and in a controlled environment. We were able to travel to visit her twice during her program and received regular calls, texts and videos. It was clear to us that she was thoroughly enjoying her program, making lots of new friends, and expanding her dance abilities. It is my hope that she will attend SOCAPA again this coming summer."

"I highly recommend going to SOCAPA ! I have been to many programs in order to improve my dancing skills, but I have to say that this camp compares to none when it comes to its professionalism and ability to inspire youths in what they are passionate in. I have gained a lot from going to SOCAPA and I recommend to anyone who is interested in the performing arts to attend this camp."

"My 15yr daughter attended the 1 week dance intensive last year. The dancing was incredible and all of the kids became great friends. They mix the different talents up in the rooming assignments, which allows all of the groups to interact. Finally the evening activities really allowed the kids to experience NYC. We have already reserved a spot for the 2019 camp!"

"I went to Socapa as young as I could and had a great time. The food is great and occidental college has a great cafeteria. The evening activities were great and came with a lot of freedom to walk around with friends. The classes were very fun and have a bunch of good tips and tricks as well as choreography in them. I definitely recommend Socapa to everyone, it is very inclusive and an overall great experience"
