Dance Connection Performing Company is an elite competition team that supports our most committed and dedicated dancers who train and compete at the elite level in jazz, contemporary, lyrical, tap, and hip hop.
Dance Connection Hip Hop Training Krews encourage an elevated level of hip hop performance and dance training at the Junior and Senior level with our professional Hip Hop staff.
Our Jazz Team allows younger students to gain experience, work with professional choreographers, and expand their jazz skills in a primarily non-competitive environment. Dancers must have prior jazz dance training. Registration is open until 10/6.
Our Teen Contemporary Team allows teens to continue developing artistry, technique, and performance skills while working with high-level instructors and choreographers. There are no auditions, but dancers must have prior contemporary dance training. Registration is open until 10/6.
Our Teen Jazz Team provides a space for teens to grow and evolve their jazz skills, musicality and performance quality with guidance from our experienced staff and professional choreographers. There are no auditions, but dancers must have prior jazz dance training. Registration is open until 10/6.
Connectors are a group of younger dancers (ages 6-8) interested in furthering their dance ability requiring a commitment above and beyond a recreational dancer including participation in conventions and performances in community events. Selection is by invitation only.
