Team

Policies

The purpose of the SDC team is to provide young dancers with an opportunity to participate in an activity and develop sportsmanship, character, and competitiveness. We encourage high standards and develop or increase skills in dance, responsibility, leadership, and self-discipline. Participation on the dance team is a privilege, not a right. As a member of the dance team, you represent our studio, and your conduct and actions in class, on the stage, and in the community should reflect the values we have set forth. Team members must show determination, dedication, and a desire to be productive members of this team.
To be on the performing team, members must successfully complete tryouts, demonstrate outstanding participation in dance practices and routines, maintain a highly cooperative attitude, and follow the team contract. The quality of an individual member's participation, age, and skill level will determine their place, if any, on the competition team.
We will be attending 3 competitions. As well as an optional convention and optional nationals.
We also may be able to participate in Deck the Chairs, Three Hearts, and/or Evening with Friends. There is no additional cost to participate in those.
Boot camp is held in the last week of July.
Team placement is ultimately up to the teacher/director. Placement is based on auditions, performance level, age, attendance, and attitude.
The competition team is a full-year commitment from July to May. You must complete our full season in order to be considered for the team in the future.
