Hello Destiny Dance family!! For those that do not know me I'm Janet Hobson, Miss Janet to the students. I am an instructor with Destiny Dance.
I know I haven't been around as much over the past year. During the pandemic we had to make a lot of unexpected changes, but I'm so glad to get back into creating amazing work with Destiny Dance.I truly am happy to be back teaching with Destiny Dance. I have sincerely missed you all! Ok! Let's get it! Miss April informed me that several of our dancers/parents have expressed interest in being a part of a dance competition team and also have questions regarding how much commitment is needed. We are currently creating a packet with all the detailed information our dancers need if they are interested in joining the Destiny Dance Team including the price breakdown and the structure of how we will run the team.
For a heads up, I've listed our requirements below by age and hours per week. It may seem like a lot of time in dance class, but this is what it takes to get the proper training and preparation to "hit the dance competition stage." As you know, our goal is to "foster confidence and individual talent through comprehensive training in a fun supportive environment". Age Groups/Team
- 5 - 7: 3-3,5 hours
- 8 - 10: 4.5 hours
- 11 and up: 6 to 5 hours
As part of the team, dancers will learn several different dance styles depending on the age group including ballet, jazz, hip-hop, lyrical, contemporary and acro. Along with these styles, all Destiny Dance team members are required to take a team technique class as well as ballet.
Before the competition season starts, we will have a summer intensive to get all the team members conditioned for competition along with introducing them to their competition dances! Auditions will be July 10th and 11th and the summer intensive will be August 16-20 and August 23rd-27th.
I am also excited to announce that I will be the Artistic Director for the team and assisted by Miss Christina.
You have been personally invited to audition. Please let us know if you are interested.
If you have any further questions about the team, please email [email protected]!
I am SO EXCITED to start our competition team and am looking forward to seeing your dancers on the Destiny Dance Team!!
