COMPETITION TEAM

Pure Motion started competing in 1998.  The team is for dedicated students who are advanced and exceed in a specific style of dance, starting from 5 years old and up. 


Once a student is chosen to be on the team, the student will go through intensive weekly training and participate in Regional and National Competitions throughout Canada and the United States, as well as performing in Benefit Shows and special events for the community. 


PM Competition Team has been very successful and has awarded the school Cash Prizes, Scholarships and Several Gold and Platinum Trophies. As well as Overall, Top, Best Costume, Best Choreography, Dancer of the Year, Most Passionate, Top Model to name a few. Competitors starting at 13yrs old can possibly be selected for our Teacher Training Program. 


Qualifications 

Competition is not for everyone, but should your child be approached regarding the team, this means that we recognize the talent, potential, and hard work that is displayed by your child. We acknowledge their capabilities and feel that they are not being met as a recreational dancer. 

Being on the team involves dedication and commitment from both the students and his/her parents. The dancers spend hours together rehearsing, fundraising and participating in planned events. The teams become very close and friendships blossom throughout the years.  


Additional information will be provided regarding 

-fundraising campaigns, entrance fee, tracksuits & clothing, accessories & photos.

-Full-Time: Technical Competitors are required to take 2 classes or more (of different styles).

Rewards

-Friendships for both students and parent’s are made, as well as shared interests and valued opinions.

Competition Team Auditions

Each dancer with the desire to compete is required to audition regardless of past competition experience. 


A dancer who has previously competed is not guaranteed a place on the competition team.


Competition is an opportunity to increase performance skills. To show responsibility in practice, commitment, and to form new friendships in working as a team.


Come ready  dance ; clothes and shoes (all types), hair tied back.  This will be just like a class. 

You will have a warm up – stretch out.

The instructor may do something across the floor – for example leaps and turns. Then you may learn a combination, depending on the style you are auditioning for. 

Dancers will be divided into groups / evaluated by age and skill level. 


Teams participate in an average of 2 competitions per year and 1 workshop.

Results will be sent by email!
