Tap Company
A La Carte Option
The A la Carte program is for dancers that wish to compete but at less training hours per week than our competitive company program. This keeps the dancer at one night a week and with limited dance routines. Special group offerings may not be of consideration. The dancer can choose which individual style of dance they would like to compete and will be required to attend those technique and choreography hours. These dancers will still require a placement audition into one of the levels listed above.
