Competition Training At Come Dance With Us, we offer our students opportunities to experience the thrill and excitement of competition. Contrary to what you may think, Latin and Ballroom competitions are for dancers of all ages and levels. Even if you have only been dancing for two months, there is a category specifically designed for you. A competition, regardless of the size, presents the challenge of goal achievement. Dancing is always fun, but when you have a specific purpose in mind, you are able to progress faster. Establishing an end objective can contribute to greater focus in your lessons, and provide incentive to push yourself to new levels. The great thing about this sport is that working toward a goal can be just as much fun as attaining it. In addition, competitions are a useful way to evaluate your own progress. Most competitors have their performances recorded on video. After the competition, you can assess the performance with your instructor to determine which areas demonstrated progress, and which may require more attention. A picture is worth a thousand words, and video is one of the most useful learning tools a dancer can utilize. Lastly, competitions offer a unique experience. The dance floor can bring out the best in all of us: stimulating not only our dancing, but confidence and character as well. Great music, glamorous costumes and vibrant energy fill the ballroom from morning ‘til night with people from all over the world who share the love of dance. It is advisable to take two or more lessons per week on a competition program with more time spent practicing as the competition date draws near. Come Dance With Us also offers consultations on costuming, hair, and makeup as you prepare for competition, or to look great at your special social event. Private lessons are scheduled at your convenience, at one of our southern Colorado locations. For more information, please contact the studio.
