*COMMITMENT EXPECTATIONS

Team members are expected to make dance a priority. You are expected to be at practice and to give 100% effort in class and out of class. Each team member is expected to be at every practice, therefore absences must be excused. We do understand that things happen and certain events take priority. Exceptions will be made on a case by case basis at the discretion of the coaches. If a team member has more than three unexcused absences they risk removal from the team.

Once teams are finalized, both parent and dancer will be required to sign a letter of commitment. This letter will guarantee commitment through the duration of the season as well as reinforce our attendance policies.

*REQUIRED CLASSES

Each team member will be required to attend their weekly class.
Preschool Performers - 45 mins/week
Elementary Entertainers - 1.5 hours/week
Starlettes & Gents - 2 hours/week
Clogging Crew - 45 mins/week

*COMPETITIONS

All team competition fees are built into your monthly tuition. 

*PERFORMANCES

As an IDC performance team member you will receive many performance opportunities. Each team will attend 3-6 local events. This is dependent on availability of live events in 2021-2022. 

*COSTUMES
