Our competition team is designed for dancers who are ready to grow beyond weekly classes. We emphasize technique, teamwork, professionalism, and positive mindset. No comparisons.

We will focus on:

  1. GROWTH OVER AWARDS
  2. ORGANIZED TRAINING LEAD BY AN EXPERIENCED INDUSTRY PROFESSIONAL
  • Encouraging Team Culture
  • Structured and Simple Schedule - Offering Weekly Rehearsals for Each Competition Dance
  • Our costume warehouse has thousands of costumes in our inventory for you to use, so it may not be necessary to purchase costumes.

IS COMPETITION RIGHT FOR MY DANCER?

Competition is not a requirement to see growth in a dancer.

Our competitive team program is used as an additional tool in the overall training of committed dancers.


YOU KNOW YOUR DANCER IS READY FOR COMPETITION WHEN…

- They express a LOVE for performing on stage.

- They are interested in additional commitments to dancing.

- They are comfortable with limited travel and additional rehearsals.
