Keyano Conservatory Dance Try-Outs- Sept 7th 2013

NEW Competition Dance Team

Try-Outs: Saturday, September 7, 2013 from 1- 4 pm, Room 138, Keyano College

Competition team allows you to show off your dance abilities and compete throughout the year against other dance studios.  You can perform in solo, duo, or group dances.  Competitive dancing helps you gain confidence in your dance skills and self-expression.

Philosophy

Keyano Conservatory’s Competitive Dance Team is dedicated to enhancing a dancer’s technique while giving them a variety of performance opportunities and exposing them to the larger world of dance. Our mission is to give dancers a fun, positive, educational experience. Every dancer is eligible to be a part of the team and students will be split up according to their skill level.

Dance Shows

Competitive dancers will participate in four dance recitals per calendar year; 

1)      The Conservatory Halloween Howler will take place in the Recital Theatre October 25th and 26th. This show will be a celebration of everything Halloween, ghosts, goblins and of course, zombies.

2)      Christmas Concert will take place in the Main Theatre December 13th and 14th. This show will be a celebration of the holidays and feature Conservatory music students and the Competitive team. 

3)      Cupid’s Mistake will take place in the Recital Theatre February 14th and 15th. This show will center on the themes of love and heartbreak.

4)      Year End Dance Recital will showcase all Conservatory dancers, competitive and non-competitive, but the Competitive Team will have more dances and will be a highlight of the show.
