Overview 
TDF DANCE COMPANY


The Dance Factory Competition Team Program gives our dancers the opportunity to express themselves through their art with exemplary technique and innovative choreography. We train our students not to be just dancers, but to be Artists.

Our company program is intensive, creative and very disciplined. We partake in regional and national dance competitions and conventions where our students continually excel. We take pride in encouraging a supportive and motivating atmosphere amongst our students. The studio is a home away from home for our dancers and a place where lifelong friendships are made. 

Being apart of the TDF Dance Company is like being a part of a big family. Competition Team is a wonderful opportunity to develop a skill, build self esteem and learn to work well with others. It is our goal that each and every member of our team reach their fullest potential. 


Senior Members train up to 14 hours a week and are selected through audition.  All Elite dancers are required to take the full team schedule, all genres, technique classes, in-house workshops, in-house master conventions, and additional workshops, intensives, conventions or master classes approved by Miss Katie.  Additional fees will apply to stated opportunities, due on or before stated events.
 
 
Teen Members train up to 12 hours a week and are selected through audition. Dancers are encouraged to train in as many genres as their schedule allows, in-house workshops, in-house master conventions, and additional workshops, intensives, conventions or master classes approved by Miss Katie.  Additional fees will apply to stated opportunities, due on or before stated events.


Junior Members train up to 7 hours a week and selected by audition.  All novice dancers are required to take team training, ballet, jazz, tap and acrobatics.  Novice dancers must take the class that compliments the genre of their competition choreography.  Dancers are encouraged to train in as many genres as their schedule allows.  Attendance to in-house workshops is based on subject matter set by choreographer and age appropriateness.  Additional fees will apply to such opportunities offered, which are due on or before the stated events.

Students who are invited to participate on our competition teams throughout the year must maintain a well rounded curriculum at the studio. Enrollment into our advanced level placement ballet program is a requirement. As a student on the competition team you and your guardian will be required to sign a TDF Dance Company contract and adhere to those and all of the studio policy rules. Commitment is a must and a hard work ethic is expected. 

 TDF Dance Company auditions will take place in June.
