| PERFORMANCE TEAM AGREEMENT |
Who:
Dancers who meet the following requirements:
*Due to limited space, attendance at auditions does not automatically guarantee a position on Performance Team. Acceptance on the team is based on audition scores which will assess dancers on various skills (splits, leaps, switch leaps, toe touches, single/double turns, fouetté turns, etc.), musicality, choreography recall, sharpness, performance quality and maturity.
What:
Prime Technique's Performance Team is an audition based, non-competitive team that provides serious, committed dancers' additional performance opportunities in styles such as jazz, poms, lyrical and/or hip hop. Performance opportunities may include community service performances, parades, sporting events (Wave, Admirals, Milkmen, etc.), and non-competitive events at amusement parks or other locations. Dancers will have a minimum of 3 to 5 performance opportunities and will perform 1 to 2 production dances in our annual recital.
When:
Where:
Auditions and practices are held at Prime Technique Dance Academy. Performance opportunities will be at various locations, and parents are responsible for the transportation of their own dancers to and from performance events.
Why:
To provide serious dancers a fast-paced learning environment to increase flexibility, strength, stamina and dance technique; to learn more complex dance skills; to develop positive attributes such as commitment, time management, collaboration and generosity; to create a sense of belonging among a team; to increase confidence through public performance opportunities, to grow not only as a dancer and individual but as a whole team and dance community!
