Audition attire must consist of all-black, form-fitting clothing. Hair should be styled in a neat bun. Students should wear suitable shoes for the dance styles they will be auditioning in. Tights are optional.

All students are required to complete an online audition form before auditioning. Dancers should specify the dance styles they wish to compete in and select the maximum number of dances they would like to participate in. A parent’s e-signature is also required on the audition form.

Submitting your audition form does not bind you to joining a team.

Sign Up For Auditions

Audition combo videos will be released for all potential team members on May 1st. The expectation is that these combo’s be learned at home prior to the audition on June 1st.

On the day of auditions, you will register, be assigned a number, and assigned a studio to warm up in. Once the audition starts there will be a brief 15 minute barre audition to review ballet skills.

The Audition will progress into “across the floor” skills review in jazz, culminating in a convention style group combo rehearsal of the videos you learned at home.

Dancers will then move to the contemporary audition, skills review across the floor, ending in convention style combo review of the videos released May 1st.

After auditions are completed, parents will be notified by email if their dancer is invited to join the team. Invitations are based on the technique demonstrated during the audition, as well as the dancer’s attitude and professionalism. For returning team members, past attendance, behavior, work ethic, and teamwork are also considered.

If you are invited to join the team, the dancer commitment agreement and deposit will be due by June 15th. The commitment deposit will be applied to your dancer's first month of tuition. If you choose not to join the team after submitting the deposit, please note that the deposit is non-refundable.

Once all team members have committed to the 2025-2026 season, the choreography team will evaluate and recommend dances based on the styles and genres they believe will best suit each dancer’s strengths.

To celebrate the end of the 2024-2025 season and welcome the new team members for the 2025-2026 season, we will host a “Thank You and Welcome” party.

Dancers selected for solos, duets, and trios will begin learning their choreography on August 1st.
