Spotlight Company Program
Our company program is designed for the serious dancer who shows special ability, concentration, motivation and dedication to their dance training, with a desire to give back to their community. Dancers must take classes in the following disciplines: jazz, tap, ballet/pointe, contemporary, hip hop, tumbling, along with technique classes, and will be placed appropriately based on age/experience level.
Additional opportunities are available for students to enhance their performance ability with recital production numbers as well as local community and charity performances. Company dancers are considered role models and as representatives of Spotlight Studio should embrace and uphold our standards and philosophy.
Please understand that company has limited space, and therefore is by invitation only with director approval. Multiple absences will not be tolerated. Your annual company commitment begins July 1st as that is your drop deadline. Dancers must keep Saturday's open for rehearsals.
