PARTNER MIXER INFORMATION

Looking for a partner? Come to our mixer on Wednesday, March 18! Connect with other dancers and find a great partner for next year!

What to Expect
Our coaches will begin by sharing helpful guidance on how to choose a compatible ballroom partner. They will then teach a short basic routine in their respective styles. Dancers will practice these routines while rotating partners, allowing everyone to dance with multiple potential partners in a structured, supportive environment.

At the end of the session, dancers may exchange contact information with anyone they are interested in scheduling an official partner tryout with.

Each dancer should attend with one parent or guardian. Dancers are welcome to participate in sessions outside their age group, as competitors may dance “up” an age level when partnered with an older dancer.

For dancers who plan to compete at the Extreme Competition in April and/or prefer to wait until after Team Placements in May, an additional Ballroom Partner Mixer will be offered following Team Auditions in May (if needed).

Partner Mixer Times:
Pre-Teen Dancers: 4:00-4:45 PM
Junior Dancers: 5:00-6:00 PM
Youth Dancers: 6:30-7:30 PM

AUDITION RESULTS WILL BE POSTED ON THIS PAGE ON MONDAY, MAY 25 BY 10:00 AM.
