Competition Prep
Competition Prep is the perfect next step for young dancers who dream of joining one of our competition teams in the future! Designed for motivated 4–5 year olds, this class introduces dancers to the expectations of a company-style classroom while building confidence, focus, and a love of performing.
Students will spend more time developing age-appropriate jazz technique, musicality, flexibility, coordination, and performance quality.
