Make your own slideshow at Animoto.
Dancers Elite is an "invitation only" competitive dance company for young girls ages 5-18. They are taught new skills each week, including but not limited to ballet, tap | hoofing, jazz, hip hop, aerial ballet, contortion, etc. All dancers & parents of Dancers Elite must possess the following attributes: dedication, commitment, passion, excellence and willingness to be pushed beyond what is “good.” These dancers are pushed to succeed and require above average dance training. This program is set to create and develop talent on a professional level.
The company requires serious time management in regards to school, homework, rehearsals and show dates. These dancers exemplify everything that is needed to succeed in a competitive atmosphere. Dancers Elite will represent the performing arts sector of Pomp Productions, exposing the immediate community to the arts of our youth. We will produce a main stage production and travel to perform by request of corporations, organizations or competitions entered.
Although this program is through invitation, we do not discriminate when it comes to the love of dance. To join Dancers Elite without an invitation, dancers must go through an audition process where choreographers of the company judge them based upon technique and various other categories. If you think your child has what it take to be apart of Dancers Elite, then please fill out the audition form.

DETAILED INFORMATION:
Dancers Elite offers two different curriculums.
Aristocrats (preferably ages 5-11): Your child will take class 2 times a week for at least one hour. They will learn new skills each week, including but not limited to ballet, tap | hoofing, jazz, hip hop, aerial ballet, contortion, etc. This option is best for dancers that are still learning the basics and want to take dance but don't have a "love" for it yet. This allows your child the opportunity to learn at a fast pace but includes different genres of dance that will keep them guessing. These dancers will perform at community events and enter one competition per year.
TUESDAYS THURSDAYS
6:00 pm – 7:00pm 6:00pm - 7:00pm
TopFlights (preferably ages 12-18): Your child will take class at least 3 times a week for two hours. They will learn new skills each week, including but not limited to ballet, tap | hoofing, jazz, hip hop, aerial ballet, contortion, etc. This option is best for "serious" dancers that have had technical training in the past. These girls know that they want to dance and just can't get enough of being out on stage and performing. These dancers will travel and be entered into numerous competitions.

Dance Attire:
At this time there is no designated “company practice uniform” but typical dance attire such as yoga pants, shorts, tights, leotards and the like will be acceptable. Girls should dance in comfortable clothing but nothing loose fitting.
Dance Shoes:
Dance shoes will not be required until an accessment has been done. You are welcome to wear ballet, jazz or tap shoes to rehearsals if you already have them. Please have a pair of socks as they make great, inexpensive “shoes” for modern, lyrical and even ballet dance.
Costumes:
Costumes will be specially made by Th3rd Charm Apparel, the clothing branch of Pomp Productions. Dancers Elite will receive 2-3 costumes per year.
Travel:
Dancers Elite will travel to competitions and/or special events but ample time will be given to make arrangements. Travel per year will not exceed 10%.
Please be aware that Dancers Elite is a performance company, not to be confused with a recreational studio. Classes will be fun but also hard work for these young ladies. They will learn the fundamentals of teamwork while showcasing their creativity.
