Imagine yourself immersed
in dance, surrounded by the beauty of the Texas Hill Country. You wake each morning with a ritual stretch on the
green banks of the Guadalupe River. Your days are leisurely paced with morning and afternoon classes and plenty
of time for hiking, swimming, shopping, practicing, and relaxing. Your nights are filled with music and dance,
with henna, campfires, and with frienships old and new. This is Tribal Dance Camp!
The first of its kind in Texas, Tribal Dance Camp is held at Vista Camps - a girls' camp in the summer months.
The accommodations are rustic, but not primitive. Lodging is provided in community cabins which have glass enclosed
and screened windows and electricity. All cabins have adjacent bathroom/shower facilities with private stalls
and hot water. Three hearty meals are provided by the catering staff in the indoor dining hall with offerings for
regular and vegetarian diets. Classes are held in a spacious gymnasium, with a raised stage, and a professional
sound system. Shows and evening events are held in the gymnasium and on the river banks.
The beauty of the Hill Country is breathtaking in APRIL. This is the perfect, serene environment in which to expand
your creative horizons and revitalize your passion for dance!
A tradition continues...Tribal Dance Camp was the vision and creation of Bahaia & HOT Seminars. With over 30 successful
events since 1996, Bahaia has now "passed the torch" of this outstanding event to Michelle Manx, respectively, so
that the tradition can continue. Bahaia will remain active in the belly dance community while focusing her energy
on her own dancing, her students and a limited scope of events including Cabaret Dance Camp, aka "Camparet", held
every October in the Texas Hill Country. Bahaia is an ongoing specialty teacher at Tribal Dance Camp.
