Team Expectations
There is no "I" in team. As cliche as that sounds, there is no room for non-team players. We are a team and therefore we support and encourage one another to become better performers as well as better humans. Every practice serves as lessons, not only in learning choreography, but it also helps build character. "Everyday you don't practice, someone else does! " A phrase the dancers are too familiar with. The single most important aspect of dance is training. Just like everything else in life, if you want to be the best you have to put in the work. Our dancers aren't handed their trophies and titles, they work for them . We aspire that our team keeps up with training, therefore it is important that our dancers respect studio time is for training.
