"Square One; A starting point. An initial stage or step." Kick off the 2027 season with this unique experience!
With two options available - the full experience or intensive only - we have options for every dancer at every level!
Square One is not a competition. The focus of the weekend is exposure, feedback, and growth.
Dancers will perform their solo OR duo/trio to receive verbal feedback from three judges, as well as have the opportunity to work with amazing leaders in the dance industry through over 3 hours of classes with guest instructors. Dancers may register independently for the intensive only, or for the full experience through their Studio/Director/Coach. Selected routines will perform in the showcase on Sunday.
This is a two-day event, with Solo and Duo/Trio performances on Saturday, and the Intensive and Showcase on Sunday.
INTENSIVE AGE GROUPS:
Ages *6-12 Years: 8 and Under, 9-12 Beginner/Intermediate, 9-12 Advanced
(minimum age of 6 for this event)
