How Our Childrens’ Dance Program Works
Dance Engagements believes every child develops and learns at their own pace. We created “dance ranks” to encourage, motivate, and push our dancers’ potential.
Dance evaluations will be given at the beginning of each season, which will determine the level of each dancer. Evaluations allow us to closely look at each dancer individually to help their strengths and weaknesses. Dancers must complete specific level requirements to earn the next bow/rank.
Dancers may and will be held back if level requirements are not met. Dance ranks can also be held or taken away if the dancer’s technique or level of knowledge has regressed, excessive tardiness/absences, and disrespectful or bad attitudes.
