Las Vegas Summer Camps

Since 1999 over 130,000 students worldwide have immersed in hands-on learning to create iPhone apps, programs with C++ and Java, video games, websites, movies, 3D models, ad designs, robots, films, and photos. Beginner to advanced students ages 7-17 enroll in these fun and challenging, weeklong, day and overnight summer camps held at 60 prestigious universities nationwide (see below).

Impact Basketball will change the way each player approaches the game and will focus them on essential elements necessary to maximize their abilities, and most importantly, help them develop into successful, goal oriented young men and women. Impact has trained over 100 pros players, including numerous Pros All-Stars. Youth athletes have access to the same unique training system that prepares stars such as Kevin Garnett, Chauncey Billups, Baron Davis, Joe Johnson and Al Harrington for their pro season. The Impact summer training camps offer an intense combination of basketball movement-based performance training, nutrition counseling and on-court skills development. The experience and knowledge gleaned during an impact training camp has been proven to have a profound positive long-term effect on a player's career.

Camp Rocks! is a 2-week rock music day camp for ages 8 and up. It is open to students who play guitar, bass, keyboard, drums, horns, or voice. At the end of the 2-week camp session students will perform live on stage in front of family and friends at Sam Ash Music on Maryland Parkway. Students will rehearse with a professional music coach, record a CD and mp3, record and edit a video for YouTube, write original lyrics and songs, create a band name and image, create a logo, and learn how to promote a band. The camp will supply a keyboard and sound equipment. Students should bring their own guitar, bass, amp, horn, cord, and drum set (at some locations). The staff will provide healthy snacks and bottled water throughout the day. Students should bring a non-perishable lunch each day.

Our innovative summer camp programs teach girls how to form bands and play music by placing electric guitars, basses, drumsticks, and microphones in the hands of young women ages 9-17, many of whom have never had musical experience. With guidance and instruction from supportive, licensed teachers and local professional musicians, girls form bands with each other and compose and practice original songs. Girls also participate in workshops on body image, self-esteem, expressing band identity through artwork, and on music appreciation and gender issues in popular music. Programs culminate with girls performing their music at showcase concerts.
