Competitive Auditions 2025/2026

 

If you are looking for a higher level of dance and your child loves to perform, check out our competition team! 

 

This season, we are introducing new requirements for technique, performance quality, and studio behavior for our competitive team. As our studio continues to grow, so do our standards and expectations. We are no longer considered a “small studio,” which means we will now participate in higher-level competitions.

 

 

 

Our main focus is to develop well-rounded dancers. We want every dancer to feel confident when they step onto the stage, and achieving that confidence requires strong technique, discipline, and commitment. Our goal is to provide both students and parents with a clear outline of what we expect, as well as what is required to be competitive at each level.

 

 

 

 

Part-Time and Full-Time Auditions Dates

What to Expect

There will be a mandatory meeting for parents in the first half-hour of each audition. A booklet that includes pricing and hours required for each level will be distributed. In this meeting, we will go over the information in the brochure and update you on the procedures, expectations and benefits of being a competitive dancer. 

 

Every dancer wishing to compete must attend auditions. Our teams have limited dancers, and each group must be established in June so that we can begin the process of arranging a final class schedule. 

 

Once selected, a competitive dancer must enrol in at least one of the summer intensives to prepare for the competition choreography that begins in October.

 

Candidates should wear proper dance attire (bodysuit, shorts, crop top, leggings)  barefoot, jazz shoes, or dance paws for turns for the audition.

Please arrive 15 minutes before your time.

 

We will need:

• Parents Name
• Parents Phone Number
• Child(s) Name 
• Are they auditioning for Part-Time or Full Time Competitive?
