Competition Team

The purpose of Team Hive is to provide a place of personal and artistic development for individuals in a group atmosphere through performance and competition opportunities. Team members will participate in both.

All levels of competition are welcome to apply/audition for our team. The competitions are broken into several level categories and split by ages, so there is an entry point for anyone from novice to professional. This year our team will be split into three groups, each group will participate in level appropriate competitions and performances. This will range from virtual and local competitions to travel competitions. All team members will perform in a team showcase and play a role in the end of year showcase. There will be some community performances in the summer and throughout the year.

The benefit to performing on our team is that team members get their very own, unique routine designed just for their personality, level and interests. Because it runs the duration of the school year, we have lots of time to perfect it and advance on our performance quality as well as our competition scores. We also will work as a team, having camaraderie and lending support to each other as we build routines and help each other out with feedback and even creativity at times. Being part of a team is fun and gives purpose and motivation!
