Experience — Unplugged

The Unplugged Experience

Camp Mendocino

Camp Mendocino is located on a 2,000-acre property in the beautiful redwoods of Mendocino County, approximately 3.5 hours north of San Francisco. It features all the things you think of when you think "summer camp." Explore the trails, get to know your fellow campers, participate in community activities, and most importantly dance! Get ready to Unplug in this isolated haven!

What People Are Saying

“At Unplugged I was able to learn from amazing talent, explore dance beyond the studio, and make new friends around the campfire. It reminded me what I love most about dance: being part of an incredible community!”

— Emma H. (Camper)

“Unplugged gave me the opportunity to connect with members of the dance community (dancers and choreographers alike!) in a more meaningful way than through regular classes. I’m so thankful for that.”

— Annie F. (Camper)

“I urge EVERYBODY to highly consider attending Unplugged next year. And the year after that. And the year after that. Trust me, it’s like nothing you’ll ever experience anywhere else. ”

— Daniel G. (Faculty 2019)

All classes outdoors

It’s the best way to take in all the beauty of the nature around us. No mirrors, just you getting in touch with your own body. Feel connected to one another in this shared experience together. Celebrate one another and enjoy dancing like you never have before!

Several non-dance activities are sprinkled throughout the entire weekend. We would tell you what they are, but that would ruin the surprise.

These activities are meant to bring you closer to your fellow campers. You’re not obligated to participate in anything, however, we recommend that our campers take full advantage of the programs we’ve set up in order to get the full “Unplugged” experience.
