OUR TEAMS

Due to the competitive nature of our sport and our ever-growing number of dancers, we choose to further split our teams based on ability. This is so that all dancers can be in a team that will allow them to learn, progress and perform in a safe, encouraging and enjoyable way. All teams have the opportunity to compete and team placements are re-assessed every year. We currently run three ability levels: Prep, Intermediate and Allstar.
