The Program
Jam Camp West is a unique and fun six-day music and dance program held in the stunning redwoods of La Honda, Northern California. Designed for youth ages 10 through 14, Jam Camp exposes kids to the hip contemporary music and dance of today, along with fun outdoor activites in a stunning natural environment.

A great alternative to traditional music camps, Jam Camp is an inclusive, supportive program where all classes are taught by ear, offering hands-on group experiences for all levels and an array of classes that can reach kids through music they are listening to today.

Curriculum
Campers will create a personal schedule by choosing from over twenty noncompetitive workshops offered each day along with daily outdoor activities.

Classes are taught by professional artists, assisted by young aspiring musicians from our counselor program.

The curriculum offers beat box, body percussion, turntables, percussion, instrumental ensembles, spoken word, vocals, and dance. Musical styles include jazz/funk, blues, gospel, and hip-hop. Our classroom is the majestic redwood forest and unique nature adventures and other interpretive and recreational out-door activities are woven into the daily program.

Recreational activities include swimming, basketball, volleyball, nature hikes, ping-pong, and tetherball. Our outdoor activities are crafted to promote awareness of the beautiful natural world at Redwood Glen. A wide range of planned evening activities - from faculty showcases to exciting campfire programs, make nights under the stars memorable and fun.
