Join our Award-Winning Team

AGES 5 and up

Students in the competitive dance program participate in extensive training in all areas of dance. They are challenged to work to their potential in a fun and encouraging atmosphere. Competitive members learn teamwork and sportsmanship while gaining confidence and increasing their self-esteem. The goal for our competitive team is not to bring home the biggest trophy. We encourage our students to learn and grow from each competitive experience, show good sportsmanship and respect for fellow dancers and competitors. Our competitive program is designed to truly challenge and inspire our students who are serious about dance. Dancers build lifelong friendships from the many hours spent training together. We teach them the value of teamwork and to trust in one another and become reliable people. These are important life lessons that they will carry forward for any future path they take in life.

PLEASE NOTE

Full commitment is required from the dancer and their parents.

Extra Costs are involved for competitive company members such as Travel expenses, Costumes, Entry Fees, Choreography fees.

Part Time Company

Joining a part-time competitive company is a great introduction to our competitive program. Part-Time competitors attend 4 competitions and perform in our Competitive Showcase and Year-End Recital. They train approximately 6 hours per week and are trained in all disciplines of dance. Part-Time allows so many kids that love performing the opportunity to be on stage without the “full time” dedication.

Full Time Company

Our Full-Time Competitive Company members are required to train a minimum of 3 nights a week in all disciplines of dance as well as a conditioning class. This program requires more hours in the studio, full time company dancers come into the studio extra nights for choreography. This is a big commitment from the dancer but also the parents.

“The training she is receiving is superior. She is not just learning a routine, she is learning about expression, emotion, technique and it shows every time she takes to the dance floor. It is not just the students that take classes. The teachers are bettering themselves as well. They bring their new knowledge to our kids. Through this studio, my daughter has had incredible opportunities to dance with some of the industry’s biggest dance stars (So You Think You Can Dance USA, and Canada, The Next Step, Blake McGrath, etc…). If your child wants a future in dance or any of the arts, you bring them to Total Danceworx. The kids and parents are treated like family. I am proud to say where my daughter dances.
