*Parents meeting and fitting with our Varsity Rep next Friday May 26 at 4:30pm in the middle school cafe. All sports physicals are now due.

Thank you so much!

Thank you!

Thank you so much for attending tryouts for the Russell Dancing Queens. As I said before, we are only having a competition team this year. Russell dance is now a sport. We are competing UDA which is a very tough venue. As I explained to the girls, you had to have a composite score of 150 to make the team.  For those of you that made the cut, I need you to think long and hard before accepting. Dedication is mandatory. We will have a strict policy on attendance. All practices are full out and perseverance to perfect choreography and skills are a must. If you feel you cannot hold up to these standards, please take that into consideration before accepting your role on the team. I'm very excited to see how we grow as we enter the Universal Dance Association. This is a great feeder program into the RHS Varsity dance team and ultimately college dance teams. Going this route will prepare you for the teams to come. For those of you that did not make the cut, I encourage you to continue your technique classes at your dance schools. I saw great potential in everyone who auditioned and I hope to see you back next year. 

Thank you so much, 

Ms. Nicole 

Try-outs

Tryouts in the morning! Review the required skills needed to make the team and make sure your combination is polished and performance ready. Please wear your hair in a high pony, black booty shorts, tank top (any color), tan tights and tan jazz shoes or pirouettes. Registration begins at 8:00am. Parents may come in at 9:15am to observe but no friends, younger siblings, etc to help keep the dancers from being distracted. You will be released to go after your group auditions. Results will be posted on the dance team blog on Sunday @12:00pm.
