MJ Dance Center's 2026 Summer Camps Are Here — and Your Dancer Is Going to Lose Their Mind
If you've been searching for the perfect summer activity for your little mover and shaker, look no further. MJ Dance Center in Bethlehem is back with their 2026 summer dance camps, and this year's lineup is seriously something special. With themes ranging from superheroes and royalty to Taylor Swift, K-Pop, and Disney villains, there is genuinely a camp for every kid — and trust us, once they hear the options, the hard part is going to be choosing just one.
MJ Dance Center has been part of the Lehigh Valley community since 1945, and their summer camps carry on that legacy of joyful, purposeful dance education. Each camp runs Tuesday through Thursday for three days of non-stop fun, and all skill levels are welcome — your child doesn't need a single day of dance experience to jump in and have the time of their life.
