Goins Dancing Competition Team

Goins Dancing is committed to the self-confidence of every dancer. We emphasize personal growth and sportsmanship above all else.

Our competition team participates in about 3 competitions per year. They are typically in South Carolina, North Carolina, or Georgia. Sometimes hotel stays are necessary. Competition schedules are announced about a week in advance. It was not until that announcement that we know when each of our dances will take the stage.

 
  • Prerequisites: To be eligible for the competition team, dancers must take ballet, one other group class, and a full-year company class. This does not apply to Eagles.
  • Auditions: Auditions are held each spring. All interested dancers are accepted onto the team. Auditions help determine sub-group placements, production roles, and choreography planning. Dance PossAbilities dancers are exempt from auditions.
  • Sub-Groups: Sub-groups are separate classes that dancers are placed in according to age and skill level. We have about 4–5 sub-groups each year. Sub-groups meet once a week for 45–60 minutes. Cost: $55/month
  • Production: This is a large dance number with a longer duration (8–10 minutes) than other dance numbers. This class meets once a week for one hour.
  • Solos, Duets, and Trios: Dancers must be in a sub-group or production to be eligible to compete solos, duets, and trios, unless they have a medical reason not to join a sub-group.
  • Choreography Days: Competition dancers will attend Choreography Days during the summer. Price: TBD.
  • Competition Fees: Each competition charges a fee for each dance. Fees for group dances are less expensive than fees for trios, duets, and solos. Each dancer’s total competition fees will vary based on the number of dances they compete in and the size of each dance. Solos have the highest fees.
  • Extra Rehearsals: There will be some extra rehearsals. Extra rehearsals cost $20 per child.
  • Costumes: Competition dancers need different costumes for each competition dance they are in.
  • Calendar: The Goins Dancing Company & Competition Calendar shows events specific to the competition team in purple — Click here.
