TDA is our ancillary Competitive Program. It has three ways to add more competitive dance into your dancer’s training at a variety of commitments and levels. Team Dance Arts is for dancers who are seeking additional performances and training opportunities and inspiration beyond the studio walls. We are very excited to watch dancers break boundaries and develop artistry as they are exposed to the industry’s top choreographers and receive valuable feedback to grow and improve each piece of work throughout the season. Those who train in Company alongside our Senior Competitive Team, stand shoulder to shoulder with some of the strongest young dancers in the nation, and do it with a greater sense of balance and stewardship.

Team Dance Arts will focus on achieving personal excellence and growth under the direction of Hannah Hawyard. We want this to be a nurturing and positive experience for your dancer.

TDA Senior is comprised of our most committed dancers in Company. Dancers must audition to be a part of one of our Performance Companies (see separate handout) and inside of that audition they will be considered for TDA group numbers, solos, duets, and trios. Throughout the year they will bond as a team and expand their individual artistry. The results are tangible, and the families that make the extra commitment with cost and time see the return with dramatic improvement in technique, performance, and athleticism. The bonds grow deeper as these young dancers travel, train, and perform together across the state or virtually if that is what is needed. We are ready for all of it!

TDA Apprentice is for our Emerge and Emerge-in Training dancers who wish to compete group dances at two events. .

TDA Peak Performer is for ANY member of our teams who wish to compete a solo, duet, or trio at two events with lower commitment and cost.
