Hip Hop Clinic

Wednesday September 1 will be our first day for hip hop. This will be a fun class for everyone.
Our coreographer will be coming up and teaching a section to audition for that routine.
It is a good experience to work with different coreographers and a new perspective.
We will practice from 3:45-5:30 that day at Infinity Dance.

Audition Results.......

Please remember that coaches will not take calls over audition results. We know that this can be difficult. We love you all and each member of our team is a vital part of our team! Eighteen hearts will march out onto the competition floor even if there aren't that many bodies. Keep working and improving, you never know when we will need an alternate........

Tuesday - Turqoise
Wednesday - Camo
Thursday Gray
Friday - Black

You can wear black short or pants :)

See You In The Morning.....

So, due to floors being refinished in gyms.....I had scheduled Mt. View for August. The staff there wasn't aware that the gym would be used as a storage area. They have talked to the district and they should have it cleared out by the end of the week. They weren't sure if it would be cleared out by tomorrow and informed me today that is has not been. We have scrambled today trying to find a last minute place to practice (on a Sunday evening) that would fit our team. So, we will be practicing at Infinity. We are still working on other school locations. August is a hard month with schools trying to get ready for school to start again.

We will not be running the track this week because we have so much to do.

Vans total with shipping and tax are $50.50.

Nappy Tabs are $37.00

Practice and review camp dance.
