Competitive
Performance Company is for those students wishing to participate
in regional talent competition through out the St. Louis area.
This is for dancers' with 2 or more years of dance, starting
at 5 years of age.
We limit the number of competitions each year. Usually 3-4
during the months of January -May. They are all in the St.
Louis area. We do not travel out of the state for nationals.
We keep the cost of our costumes reasonable and age appropriate.
The age of our competition team ranges from 5-18 yrs. New
dancers to competition are assigned to only one routine. This
gives the student and the parent a chance to learn about competition.
All Performance Company dancers must dance during the summer
session. Arrangements can be made to accommodate vacations,
but the real importance is that they continue to improve their
technique.
At no time will we allow the dancers to perform a routine
or wear a costume that we feel is not age appropriate or suggestive
in any nature.
