competition team

The ELITE of Elite

The Elite team is reserved for exceptionally talented dancers who attend multiple weekly classes. They proudly represent the school in both local and national competitions, training under professional conditions to ensure they are at the top of their game.

Auditions for the squad are open to all dancers aged 6-18 and are held annually. Competition classes are available once a week in Chiswick (West London) and Wimbledon (South-West London), with a 100% attendance rate expected.

We want to emphasise that competitive dance may not be suitable for everyone, as it can be an intense environment similar to sports competitions. Dancers should be prepared to meet professional standards and receive critiques from judges, although the rewards can be significant.
