Competitive dance

Dancers of this level will usually dance around 1.5 to 12 hours per week (a versatile dancer wishing to compete in different styles will have more dance options and training hours). The objective in this level is to allow dancers to push their training while surrounded by dancers with similar mentality and skills. Throughout the season, many technical skills will be learned and reviewed, as well as an advanced choreography. Teams of this level will compete in 1 to 5 provincial competitions, perform in the Studio’s mid-year show and year-end shows. Other performance opportunities may also arise during the season for dancers of this level. Dancers of this level may request the direction’s authorization to perform a solo, duo or trio in competition. Rehearsal for such performances are supplemental to the regular training (an additional 12 to 20 training hours during the season).
