FALL 2026 TO SPRING 2027
For the 2026-27 season, dancers in grades 6 to 12 have 2 different performance team options: Bronze Team & Silver Team. Both teams will have exciting local performance opportunities and participate in fun team-building activities. Teams are a fantastic social experience for teens and strengthen character, build confidence, and improve social skills. Team members are highly encouraged to also be enrolled in a class (required for Silver Team members), to keep progressing in their step knowledge & technique. For this reason, we offer 50% off class tuition for team members!
The Silver Performance Team offers a highly engaging opportunity for learning and performing ballroom dance. It is intended for dancers who are at intermediate (or higher) level and/or those who would like to learn & progress at a quicker pace with more rehearsal time and overall commitment. We are looking for teens that can be dedicated to achieving a high level of success as a team, and have the ambition to consistently improve. During your experience on team, you will learn exciting routines, tricks, and work hard together to synchronize formations.
Rehearsals are 2 hours long and held twice per week.

The Bronze Performance Team is a good introduction to dancing on a formation team and moves at a more relaxed pace, with only once per week rehearsals held later in the day. This team is a great choice for beginning to intermediate dancers and/or those who have a busy schedule (perfect for students participating in after-school sports or other extracurriculars!). Make new friends, learn some fun choreography, and participate in 2 or 3 local performances to show off what you learn!
Rehearsals are 1.5 hours long and held once per week.
