IMPROVISATION
A big part of being a dancer is being able to express yourself through improv.
The competition is real.
From ages 7 – 18 dancers prepare pieces each season to compete at regional and national venues and conventions. Through this, they learn how to work as a team, also helping them to sharpen their technical skills, as they are constantly motivated to improve each time they perform through the adjudications they receive from the judges.
