Competition
Dance Works offers competition classes for exceptionally motivated dancers
ages 5 through teens. The dancers in these classes consistently work
hard, both in technique classes and in preparation for dance competitions.
Dancers in the competition classes are required to register for, and
attend regularly, the appropriate level of ballet, jazz, and tap technique
classes in addition to the competition class.
If you think that your student would be interested in this class, please
consider the following:
Motivation: Is dancing your student’s extra-curricular priority?
Time Commitment: The competition commitment begins with the first class in September and ends with Nationals in July. Regular attendance is required in all classes, not just the
competition class. If your student is unable to attend any class for any reason,
you must notify the office before the absence. Excessive absences will result
in not being able to compete and/or perform. Extra rehearsals may be necessary
as we approach the competition dates. These rehearsals will be mandatory. Your student must be able to travel to Denver for regional competition & workshop in March, and to Las Vegas for national competition and workshop in July.
Financial Commitment: In addition to regular monthly tuition fees & proper
dance attire, there will be competition fees and workshop fees plus travel & lodging
expenses. Additional rehearsals will be at the private lesson rate. Plan on one
costume fee for each competition number.
If you have any questions about the competition classes, or would like for your
student to participate in this special program, please feel free to contact Miss
Crystal or Miss Rachel at 243-5954.
