Thinking Ahead to '22-'23
It's time to start thinking ahead to our next dance season! We know you might have questions about things - please reach out if we can help you plan!
Things to think about...
Does your dancer hope to return to the competition team at Elevate for the '22-'23 season? If so, fill out this audition registration form: Auditions at Elevate Dance Center, 22-23 (google.com)
Is your dancer interested in a solo, duo, or trio for the '22-'23 season? If so, fill out the s/d/t intention form here: Solo/Duo/Trio Interest, 22-23 Season (google.com)
Is your dancer considering being a part of an 'early select' group? This is a new opportunity that we are super excited about, and we are hoping to have dancers take advantage of it. Definitely reach out if you have questions, and you can find more information here: Early Select Groups | Elevate Dance Center (danceelevate.com)
Confused about summer dance and what to register for? Once auditions are complete, we will place your dancer in their required summer classes. The only classes you should register for right now are any 'extras' your dancer wants to take. These include: modern, pre-pointe, pointe, commercial dance, acro, musical theater and hip-hop. Basically, anything that's not a deep blue on the summer schedule you can go ahead and register for now. You can see the summer schedule here: 6-week Summer Class Series | Elevate Dance Center (danceelevate.com)
What about the guest teacher week this summer? The guest teacher week is scheduled for 8/15-8/19 this summer and is required for all 22-23 competition team dancers. You do not need to register for this right now; we will place your dancer in the appropriate level for you after auditions. You can read more about the guest teacher week here: Guest Teacher Week 2022 | Elevate Dance Center (danceelevate.com)
What about the cost of everything? We continue to be as transparent as possible about the costs associated with being an elite dance athlete at Elevate. You can see estimated financial projections here: 22-23 Financial Estimates | Elevate Dance Center (danceelevate.com)
