Attire- dancers may wear any form fitting clothing; hair pulled back, and wear proper shoes necessary for each genre. Advanced dancers, 12-up group plan to dance barefoot & bring turn shoes.
Learning Audition Combo- The tryout combos will be judged on proper technique, style, performance, musicality and overall execution. We have 4 age groups for try outs. Ages 5-6, 7-8, 9-11, 12-up. Must audition in age group as of age July 31st, 2023. They need to attend the audition time coordinated with the age group of combos learned. We’ll have 1 optional studio day where teachers will be available to help, answer questions, and help everyone properly prepare in hopes to make it a minimally stressful experience. The optional audition prep schedule is linked below, and it is held at the Riverton Studio.
Tryout Process- dancers will arrive 10-15 min prior to audition time to check in. Dancers need to bring the resume form with picture glued to back, and signed company contract attached below. The resume and picture should not exceed a 4×6 size please. Dancers will proceed inside to warm up, complete a technique try out (similar to a jazz class), and audition the combo in groups. Auditions are closed to parents.
Results: our staff spends numerous hours, late nights and early mornings determining placement. We take it very seriously as it is a big commitment for all.
