Food will NOT be provided. All students are asked to bring a bagged lunch/snacks with beverages water and sports drinks are best . Soda and Juice are not allowed

At NHAOPA we feel there are "no small parts only small actors". Each and every person is important to the success of our show! Each child will have the opportunity to audition for our casting directors.Some young actors are anxious to play the lead role, and some are happy to have a smaller part.

He is also the North Eastern Area Administrator for IVTOM and helps to educate new teachers on Mix Technique. He is a proud member of National Association of Teachers of Singing, Inc. Billy has spent countless hours of taking what he has learned from his past teachers, IVTOM, and Leading Voice Scientists around the world to develop his unique method.
Billy is one of the most sought after Vocal Coach's in the North East. Students travel from all over to study his technique and to find the vocal freedom that can only be found in his studio. Those who can't travel enjoy lessons via Skype/Facetime. His students range from beginners to professionals and children to adults. Students have found that in just one lesson ,they have learned more and found more freedom in their voice then they have after studying with their former teachers for years. Even those who students who never thought they could sing learn that with Billy if you can speak you CAN sing !
Billy is known for his unique teaching approach and the ability to feel exactly what is going on in students voice that is causing the problem and giving the correct exercise to fix it. Students learn to have fun while training . Thanks to the vocal freedom his students achieve they are able to get leading roles in shows, win competitions and work as professional vocalists. Due to the rapid growth of his studio and his drive for always being the best Billy has founded New Haven Academy of Performing Arts. Refusing to be able to teach every student who wants to learn his method he needed a way to make sure that could happen. Billy is proud to have personally trained and certified his staff of vocal coaches in his method so that everyone could learn. Just like Billy his coaches are available in person and online.

OTHER CAMP INFO: Skyhawks Sports Camps are SAFETY FOCUSED!
At Skyhawks we go the extra mile to focus on safety, and we have a long-standing proven safety track record and processes to prove it. For example, all Skyhawks Sports camps start and end with our unique safety process called "Gate System and Parking Lot Duty." This process is where coaches come and greet both parents and campers in the parking lot when parents pull up to drop off their children.
Our staff guide the kids onto the field/court and out of harm's way by funneling them into our gate system. Eye contact is maintained from each one of our staff members until the kids make it onto the field/court where they are grouped by age. This efficient process ensures safety. Additionally, it develops a level of trust between parent, coach, and child that ultimately leads to a fun and skill-focused camp for youth.
CAMP SESSION DATES & FEES:
Skyhawks Sports Camps are offered throughout the summer, and specific dates and times vary from location to location.
Fees vary depending on age, duration of camp, and location.
