Competitive Program

The competitive program is designed for dedicated dancers who enjoy dancing and who strive to accomplish an advanced level of training. Competitive dancers learn life skills through performances, competitive events, attending unique workshops, working as a team and so much more.

Competitive Team Values

Commitment, Determination, Trust & Loyalty are our main values as a studio and are at the heart of our approach.
It is our goal to instill our values in our students

Commitment

We are committed to being the best we can be. In order to achieve this, we place our dancers at the center of everything we do. In return, every dancer must be committed to work to their full potential in class, at rehearsals and on stage!

Determination

We are committed to working with all dancers to reach their goals. Dancers must have the self-determination to find a purpose for their hard work and set goals for their dance season.

Trust

Trust is the foundation of all successful dancer-teacher relationships. Dancers must trust their teachers and the process as they navigate through their classes. Teachers have all dancer’s best interests at heart and promise to work with each student in the best way we know possible, to help them improve.

Loyalty

We are dedicated to building and maintaining loyal relationships with our dancers. We want to work with dancers on both short and long-term goals, building on a solid foundation, to last them all their dance years. We aren’t just building a company, we’re building a family.

Competition Team & Program Requirements

Competitive dancers will take a combination of weekly technique (non-competitive) and competitive classes. Different levels in our competitive program have different requirements for their training.

Dancers who register for multiple competitive styles of dance must meet the requirements for each style taken. For example, a dancer in Little Stars Acro & Little Stars Jazz will be required to take a SOT Acrobatic Arts Class, SOT syllabus Ballet & Acro Large.

    Large & Specialty Groups*

    Stars of Tomorrow is proud to offer a variety of opportunities for dancers to grow, including the opportunity to compete in large groups. Dancing in a large group, across levels, is an important part of a dancer’s journey. Working together in large groups gives dancers the unique opportunity to learn from each other and guide one another with one common goal in mind. Working with a large group is important to each individual dancer’s growth, and creates a strong bond within the team.

    These routines will be learned and rehearsed during regular weekly classes, along with full group rehearsals to run the piece altogether.

    Stars of Tomorrow has always loved being having specialty group routines, giving dancers with like qualities, across age divisions, the opportunity to dance together. These routines are invite-only.

    Solo/Duo/Trio Routines

    In addition to regular, large and specialty group opportunities, SOT also has a number of dancers compete in solo, duo and trio categories each season. These routines allow dancers to learn (an) extra routine(s) by themselves or with 1-2 other dancers.
