TRYOUT FEE:
$50 (per group) Tryout fees process when you register. If your dancer is unable to be present at tryouts, the tryout fee will still process in order for dancers to be considered for a line/s. If you are participating in the intensive, the tryout fees will not process as they are included. Disregard the fee when registering.
Please have dancers tryout for line/lines that they are committed to registering for. This ensures that we place all dancers correctly and avoids disappointment.
Competition dancers who are not in a main competition line are required to be in more than 1 supplemental line or class. This can be a competitive or recreational class. This is to ensure that dancers don’t fall behind in technique, musicality, endurance and skills. Dance conditioning class is a great option. There is no costume or performance involved in conditioning. We are dedicated to proper training and development of all our dancers at LMDA.
