Why does your dancer and/or dance team want to be a part of our program?
Dance team tryouts are competitive and difficult. Your child will feel confident and comfortable auditioning after being a part of our program. They will know what to expect and how to make their audition experience a POSITIVE one.
Established dance teams need professional dance instruction, training, and choreography throughout the year in order for the team to perform well, collectively improve as a group, and place well at all dance competitions.
