What We Do
We are comprised of dancers ranging from ages 5 to 19. Our members have the opportunity to train in different styles including acro, ballet, contemporary, pointe, jazz, hip hop, pom, musical theater and tap.
We believe the development of the dancers' overall artistic impression is a priority, as well as intense technical training. As an integral part of a dancer's training, company members are given the chance to perform before a variety of different audiences including their own Christmas Show, Spring recital and local events, as well as competitions. Members regularly audition and win scholarships allowing them to study with prestigious schools across the nation.
