Competition Dance & Cheer Troupes

COMPETITIVE DANCE & CHEER

We offer three types of competitive All-Star teams

Cheer
Our competitive cheer troupes are for those who wish to take their cheer to the next level. Our teams spend time together in their squad class working on and perfecting a routine. They compete with this routine at 4-5 competitions per year and perform at our bi-annual Cheer Show Offs. Our competitive cheerleaders must do a tumbling class suited to their level.

In 2024, we have eight Cher teams.

Tiger Snakes - Junior Level 1

Racer Snakes - Junior Level 2

Pom

Our pom troupes work together for a minimum of two hours a week to perfect a routine to compete with at 4 competitions throughout the year. They also perform at our bi-annual concerts.

To become a member of one of our pom troupes, students must audition and be accepted. We hold auditions for our pom troupes at the end of each year, ready for the upcoming new year.

Within our Pom Troupe program, we have a Shooting Stars stream and a novice stream. Our Shooting Stars stream is for our elite dancers who usually all come from our Shooting Stars program. These dancers are already training in their Shooting Stars program for around 4-6 hours a week. Our novice stream is for our dancers who also want to experience the competition world and be pushed more than they would in a recreational class, but don't need to commit to too many hours of training.

In 2024, we have eight pom teams.
