Performance Groups

Develop your skills in hip hop and a variety of street dance styles, learn a fun & original choreography and perform it with your team!

Our Performance Program (non-competitive) runs in two ‘Semesters’ (Sept-Dec 2021 and Jan-May 2022). Each semester will explore new styles, moves and a brand new routine to keep things fresh and exciting! We suggest that dancers have a minimum of 1-2 years experience to join a performance group. Check out the classes and descriptions below to find the best group for you. For those completely new to Hip Hop/Street Styles, we recommended starting with our Street Dance Foundations.

Competitive Classes require a Full Year Commitment (Sept 2021-May 2022). In addition to the two annual showcases, competitive teams will compete in 2-3 events in the spring as well as receive invites to person at local events and festivals around the city. All competitive teams and specialty ‘crews’ require an Audition which must be done before completing your registration. See Registration page for more info.

Note: New students may be asked to complete an assessment for performance groups to ensure they find the class that is the best fit!

PERFORMANCES: Dancers are featured in one showcase at the end of each semester. Our tentative showcase dates are December 11th, 2021 and May 28th, 2022. All students must maintain regular attendance- there is a max 2 absence policy per semester. Those with 2 or more absences in a semester may not be permitted to perform.

COSTUMES: There is a $50.00 costume deposit per class each semester (due Sept 1 and Jan 1). While we very rarely go over the deposit amount, any additional charges for costume will be invoiced at least one month prior to the showcase and must be paid in full in order to perform.
