Once upon a time in the cozy, peach-scented state of Georgia, a gang of rambunctious, toe-tapping kids were cooking up a storm. No, they weren't in the kitchen whipping up grandma's secret peach pie recipe. These kids were churning out dance moves that would make a peacock jealous! Meet our hero, Jitterbug Jasper. He’s a snappy grasshopper with a top hat who dances better than any human or bug you've ever seen! When Jasper clicks his tiny insect heels, the ground shakes with rhythm. He's the dance champion of the bug world and the inspiration for the kids of Georgia. These kids dance like the warmth of a sticky sweet summer day, their movements as smooth as hot honey pouring from a jar. They were a diverse bunch, from tiny tots hopping about like excited kangaroos to teenagers whose breakdance moves echoed the crackling thunder during a tempest. Everywhere in Georgia, from the bustling city of Atlanta, to the serene Savannah, to the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains, kids were twirling, jumping, and jiving. Like peaches ripening in the sun, they practiced, got better, and their dance routines grew sweeter with each passing day. Not a day went by without the thumping beat of music echoing across the state. The kids of Georgia and their mentor, Jitterbug Jasper, danced their hearts out, spreading joy and laughter all around. Their infectious energy and boisterous dance moves could make a grumpy gator tap its tail, a snobby sparrow do the splits, or even get a lazy ol' bear to do the boogie-woogie! And that, my friends, is what made Georgia the funniest, grooviest, most dance-tastic state in all of America!

Nestled in 178 acres of lush woodland is a serene escape from the city, a place fondly known as Camp Swamp. This overnight Christian camp, located just two hours east of bustling Atlanta, has been serving as a peaceful retreat since 1992. We like to think of it as our own "little slice of heaven," offering a respite from the daily hustle and bustle, and inviting people to reconnect with nature and their spirituality. Our primary offering is a week-long summer camp, but we've expanded over the years to include more than just summer fun. As part of our mission to support families and churches, we now also host three family camps throughout the year, as well as four parent/child retreats. These events offer a chance for families to bond, parents to connect with their children, and individuals to grow in their faith. Moreover, our facilities are not exclusive to our organized events. Camp Swamp also offers rentals to schools, churches, universities, sports teams, and even business groups. Whether you're planning a camp, a retreat, or a team-building excursion, our serene setting and well-equipped facilities provide the ideal backdrop for an unforgettable experience.
At our family-oriented studio, we offer a wide range of classes for ages 2-adult. From creative movement and tap to ballet, jazz, clogging, hip-hop, lyrical, and contemporary, we enable families to find a dance home together. We invite you to tour our studio and join in on one of our classes. We believe there's something for everyone, and we'd love for you to become a part of our family.
