    There are spring tryouts and fall tryouts, look in NEWS to find out the announced dates of those tryouts.

 

    The first day of tryouts will consist of learning two routines, one jazz and one hip hop. We will also do across the floor and stretching to get everyone warmed up.

    The second day will consist of an interview, then performing both routines. Also, technical skills will be judged, such as:

Right/Left Double Turn or Triple Turn
Right/Left Leap
Right/Left Side Leap… (Open Leap, Second Leap)
Right/Left Kick... (Pitch, Side, Hitch...etc.)
Right Calypso
Toe Touch
Dancer's Choice... (Fouette Turns, Second Turns, Leg Holds, Another routine you'd like to perform...etc.)

    Wear sportswear (stretch pants and comfortable top) and athletic shoes or jazz shoes. Bring a cassette tape and we can record the music on it.
