BREAKING NEWS FOR 2010 COMPETITION SEASON!!
We are adding a level for competition in the 2010 season. Below you will find the explanation of the new levels. Please feel free to email us with any questions.
The Mini’s will remain the same.
The NEW LEVEL will be called SHINING STARS… dancers will dance 3 hours or less and have 6 or less routines.
The old “intermediate level” dancers will now be called SHOOTING STARS… these dancers will now dance 5 hours or less and have 8 or less routines.
The “advanced level” dancers will now be called SUPERSTARS… these dancers will be anyone taking more than 5 hours of class and be in more than 9 routines.
Any dancer that got a Platinum achievement at nationals in the old “intermediate level” will now move up to the SHOOTING STARS level rather than the SUPERSTAR level. This is for the 2010 season only because we are changing levels.
We are excited about adding this additional level, as it gives one more opportunity, for teachers to split their dancers up, and also get dancers a head start on competition.
Cash awards shall remain the same for the SUPERSTAR category. In the past the “intermediate” or SHOOTING STARS were not awarded prize money, they will now be given gift certificates towards nationals with amounts to be determined soon.
There will be no award money or gift certificates for SHINING STARS.
Most of our regional dates are listed on the website. There are 3 or 4 that cannot be confirmed until September 1st.
Our online registration is fabulous, just start with a complete roster of your competition dancers. For those of you that are already registered from nationals or regionals in 09 registering for 2010 will be a breeze, as your roster is in with the exception of dropping names and adding new students. We hope to have the ability for you to pay directly ONLINE via credit card when you register by January 1st.
