1)     Auditions Saturday Jan. 20th 10:00 am
There will be a parent meeting, immediately following auditions

2)     Students must have completed at least one year of dance and be at least 5 years old.

3)     Students must take as many core classes as possible. Ballet and tap is required. Jazz is required for all students 9 and older. Pointe, Modern, and Acrobatics is strongly recommended.

4)    Must attend at least one dance convention a year.

If you are accepted to the competition team you are required:

1)     to attend all rehearsals. Rehearsals will be on Saturday and Sunday. Once you have committed to the team you may not miss any rehearsals or competitions for any reason. This will be enforced. Please be 15 mins early to all rehearsals.

2)     to participate in one large studio team number and at least one small group number. This will be my choosing. You may and are encouraged to participate in as many group dances as possible. Only you can decide how much time and money you can commit to the team. Solo’s are upon request. No first year competition team member may have a solo unless at my request

3)     to pay all fee’s including rehearsal fees, choreography fees, costume fees, and entry fees before competing. I will not pay your money for you.

I have not made a decision on which competitions we will attend.

We normally attend 3 regionals and 1 nationals.  I am trying to find accurate information.

Entry fees vary from competition to competition but generally

Solo’s $65     Duo/trio $30 each     Groups $26 each

Rehearsal fee will vary depending on the amount of time needed.

Rehearsals fees are approximately $125 per dance.

There will be an additional rehearsal fee for summer rehearsal before Nationals.

To have someone other than myself for choreograph a dance will cost no less than $125 to be divided by the dancers in that piece.
