Summer Institute for the Gifted
Coed Camps with Residential & Day Camp Sessions
Gifted students in grades K-12 can participate in the renowned Summer Institute for the Gifted (SIG) program. Hosted at some of the most famous colleges and universities in the country such as Princeton University, Dartmouth College and UC Berkeley, SIG has the best well-rounded program for gifted students as it combines academics, social, cultural and recreational opportunities. Students live and learn on campus for three-weeks, leaving with the additional confidence gained by an experience that is all their own.
Because of our small classes, low teacher-student ratio, and teaching assistants, SIG is able to individualize the program for each and every student. Student safety, security and health are our top priority as SIG programs are well staffed for careful supervision. Ten day programs are available for younger students and most of our residential programs have a commuter option. Our more than 25 years of experience have made us the leading organization in the field.
The Summer Institute for the Gifted is the program of the National Society for the Gifted (www.nsgt.org), a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) foundation.

1. Feel Great: Studies show that dance can increase self-confidence and help build social skills.

3. Reduce Your Stress: Movement plus rhythm creates an anxiety-reducing, meditative state.
4. Boost Your Immune System: Rhythmic movement is so beneficial that dancers have healthier immune systems than equally fit athletes.
5. Zap Your Boredom: Dance is an endlessly varied form of physical activity with strong mind-body & social components; if you like it, you're likely to stick with it.
