Audition Information

Auditions are typically held at the end of July or beginning of August. However, please contact us if you want to be a part of the team and you missed the auditions! We will accept dancers until October.

Auditions will consist of a ballet class, technique class, and 2-3 different combos that you will learn and perform in groups. Teachers and choreographers will watch and base their decisions on your audition, as well as all the hard work you have put in throughout the year.

Commitment

Since Company Members are representing Westside Dance Company locally and nationally, it's very important that you take your classes seriously and that you attend every week. We understand that conflicts will happen like school activities and family events, but being a part of the team means you are committed to training every week and not missing your weekend rehearsals. For your weekend rehearsals, Westside can schedule around your other commitments but you must send in conflicts 1 month prior to be excused. However many routines you want to be a part of will determine how long you rehearse at the studio.

To be member of the Westside Dance Company Competition Team, you will sign a commitment contract to be present at your weekly classes, weekend rehearsals, and all competitions/conventions.
