Competition Team
Plan on having rehearsals every Saturday and Sunday.
We could work some solos on Thursday and Friday nights.
It is very important that we get started on time and work as a group
Practices begin January 24 & 25
I need to know how many dances each individual is interested in doing. I suggest as many as possible. For the majority on the list that would be 3. A large group number, a ballet dance, and a tap number.
We will practice Jan 30th & Feb 1st
I will work around tryouts for Miss Mississippi Pageant
Regular practice Feb 7 & 8
