PERFORMANCE
Offered to students 7-14 years of age (by March 1, 2024), our brand NEW performance program is a division of our competitive programming that is designed for dancers who have a desire to refine and develop their technical skills, while committing to a weekly training schedule that provides families flexibility.
Building a strong foundation and creating confident dancers, remains our focus. Students have the option of training anywhere from 1-5 hours per week, while still reaping the benefits of a competitive team environment. The performance team will prepare a routine that they will perform three times in the season; two local competitions in April/May, as well as the annual year end recital in June.
PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS
To qualify for the performance program, dancers are required to have a minimum of one year of completed training in the style they register for. To ensure a positive stage experience, additional weekly practice at home will be expected. To assist parents in supporting their dancer, access to a private classroom app with weekly updates directly from their child’s instructor is included.
