ACADEMY COMPETITIVE DIVISION
Performance & Competitive Program
WELCOME
Home to our competitive team, The Academy Dance Alliance, these classes supplement our Academy Core Curriculum in preparation for multiple competitive and performance opportunities throughout the season. The Alliance is widely recognized for its technical excellence and show-stopping and award-winning, yet age-appropriate choreography. Many of our Alliance members have been accepted into top college dance programs (often on scholarship) or gone directly into professional dance companies, where they pursue their dreams as professional performers (view HERE). More important than any award, though, is the emphasis we place on team building and dance/life balance. The joy of dance and connection among fellow team members is genuine, which is why they shine so bright on stage.
