It's a great way for our young dancers to learn about commitment, team work, setting goals and to have a great time on stage! The focus is not on winning. Success for us is doing our best and growing more each time we perform. This program builds confidence and helps to teach those life lessons as in "the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat". We encourage humility and empathy and also help develop tools to use when things just simply don't go our way. The class meets every week until May 23 and they will learn their routine during this class time.
Petite Team Class - no audition required.
All Petite team dancers must take the Jazz/Lyrical Combo class that precedes Petite Team Class. The Petite Team class cannot be their only class.
Additional costs: Costume fee and 2 competition entry fees - $230.
