Diamonds (our Performance Team)

Class Requirements: As a dancer on our Diamonds Team, you will be required to take the Diamond classes on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. In addition, Diamonds must take an additional 3 classes (of their choice) each week. Extra mandatory rehearsals may be added throughout the season.

 *Attendance* is essential for each Diamond to reach their goals as a dancer. Attendance will be strongly monitored and diamonds are asked to confer with their instructors when they are unable to attend class. Participation in some events are dependent upon students' attendance to these practices.
