Competition Team
Our award winning competition team is made up of dancers from all over the four state area. This group is chosen through an audition by different judges in August of each year. Something unique about our team is we have three different levels. All three levels work in their own groups, as well as together for our studio production number.

General Competition: This is our first level of competition. These dancers are required one night of practice a week. During this practice the dancers learn, clean, and practice competition dances. They also take ballet and technique. This group is also encouraged, but not required, to take extra ballet and technique classes throughout the week. General Competition attends no more than three competitions/conventions a year as well as nationals.
