Dance Company Mission Statement
...Dancers on our competitive teams enjoy a more serious dance training experience to gain valuable performance and tournament opportunities. Participation is by audition and casting only. If you are interested in auditioning for company, please let your regular ballet or jazz teacher know or you can email the director, laney@pendragonacademy.com. ...Dancers are generally chosen from intermediate and advanced level classes. We look for students who are easy to work with, take critique well, work hard, attend more than one class per week, have good flexibility and poise, and whose parents have good payment records and treat other parents and staff with kindness. Teams are divided by age and level and vary with each year. ...We have a ZERO tolerance policy for gossip and slander. Company members are held to a very high behavior standard, expected to work together in teams and as a company, and focus on personal improvement rather than "winning" against other teams. We have a tight-nit group that enjoy spending time together at conventions and special events. Company members make life-long memories and friends, while opening doors to a career in the performing arts and overall life enrichment! Added benefits of company involvement: most company members stay out of trouble because they are constantly at rehearsals or events and do not have time to participate in harmful activities. Company builds both teamwork & leadership skills, which prepare your child for future success! Company instills self-confidence and an enthusiastic outlook on life that your child will carry with him/her into adulthood. Company puts your child in the spotlight, opening doors to professional opportunities and award-winning moments. We look forward to your participation in company! |
