Competitive Program
Joining an MDA competitive team is an incredible opportunity for dancers to grow both technically and artistically while gaining valuable performance experience. It’s a chance to challenge yourself, build confidence, and create lifelong memories as part of a supportive and inspiring community.
Being part of the competitive team requires dedication and commitment from both dancers and their families. In addition to regular classes, competition rehearsals are essential, and all team members must be enrolled in a full-time program. This includes a combination class (tap, jazz, and ballet) or enrollment in the full ITP or Teen Program levels. Maintaining excellent attendance and completing all required dance exams are key to enhancing technique, flexibility, and overall growth as a dancer.
Auditions for our competitive teams are held annually in the spring. We can’t wait to see you shine!
Thank you for helping make our dance dreams a reality.
