KDC 2025 Competition Readiness Program
We are so excited to offer our KDC Competition Readiness Program once again for interested students this summer!
Our KDC Competition Team dancers have been regionally and nationally recognized with many awards/placements/titles over the last 7 years. They are incredibly hard workers and amazingly talented dancers that represent KDC in a positive way at all times. They are role models for our Recital dancers, as well as great students in school. Our KDC Competiiton Team has the most supportive dancers, families, and teachers around! If this is something you feel your child would want to potentially take part in, please consider signing up for the KDC Competition Readiness Program.
This program is designed specifically for dancers who are new to auditioning for the 2025-26 KDC Competition Team.
*Dancers age 6-18 qualify.
We have created this program to help these incoming dancers feel more prepared for what to expect during the summer intensive and audition process. Jazz and Tap are both requirements for the Competition Team, and we will teach them the basics, as well as skills/technique for each style. We will also be offering a a Stretch class as part of this program to teach them the proper way to stretch/warm up.
Each class will be based on their current dance level (if they are brand new to the studio we will place them accordingly).
You can view the KDC Competition Readiness Program schedule by going to:
https://kelleysdancecraze.com/2024-2025-dance-schedule
This program will run from Monday- Friday the week of August 4th-8th from 5:30-8:00 pm with one 15 minute break.
This program is at a discounted rate of $100 per child, and is run by Miss Kelley and Miss Bri.
The lobby will also be closed to parents during this time to keep our dancers focused. If they are intent on making the team, some days are longer than others, and some days they will have shorter breaks. We have set the times of the program up in such a way that they will be able to experience this firsthand to see what a typical day might feel like if they were to make the team.
Don't delay- register today to reserve your spot before this program fills up, as it was high in demand last summer, and we expect the same this year!
*Current Competition Team dancers do not qualify for this program.
**Please do not sign up for this program if you have no intention of auditioning for the team.
Registration for this program begins on March 15th, 2025.
Registration for this program ends on July 28, 2025.
Fees for this program will be due on July 29, 2025.
