We offer Audition Preparation Classes for any dancers (grades 4-12) wanting to get extra help before the audition. The class will include 9 hours of instruction spanning three weeks on Fridays and Saturdays. Students will learn a waltz and cha cha routines and will also learn technique that will help them look their very best! It is also a great place to potentially meet a partner for auditions!
