CSA Dance Tiers

 

YEAR: For the committed dancer. The anchors of our program. They will be the featured performers at the year end dance show. Through this they will get to spend time learning technique, new moves, have more time for choreography, have fun and work toward the end of the year dance show. This is standard for all dance studios.

 

SEMESTER: There are 2 semesters in the year. These classes are designed & encouraged to participate in the semester ending show(s).
Holiday Show (semester 1) or the Dance show (semester 2 & year end).

 

6 WEEKS: This is for people who are unsure whether dance is their thing. They can dabble and see if they like it.  If they do like it ... then they can sign up for the next six weeks.  Note: No performances will happen with this group ... It’s merely recreational.  If at the end of the semester they want to pursue the dance show they are permitted to sign on for a longer commitment.
