DSD COMPETITIVE DANCE TEAM - 2024-25
General Information
Our D.S.D. Competition Team is a traveling competitive dance team. We travel to attend our events, but most events are less than 4 hours away. We welcome rising 5th - 12th graders to audition. Please note that age/grade will not determine team placement; technique and ability will be the determining factors for team placement. The team meets weekly on Wednesdays from 6 - 8:30 p.m., and there is an additional tuition fee for team. All team members are required to participate in fundraisers and purchase costumes as well. Please Contact Us with questions.
2024-25 Auditions:
Thursday, August 1
6 - 8 pm, at the DSD Studio
Audition Requirements:
Audition participants will learn new combinations and be separated into groups to demonstrate their mastery of the material for the coaching team. Participants will be observed during warm-ups and will be asked to demonstrate various skills including jumps and turns across the floor.
Following tryouts, you will be notified about the results via email. We will have a parent/student meeting (TBA) to discuss the plans for the upcoming season.
