TEAM HUB

Welcome to SZN 9 ❤️‍🔥
This is your home base for all Dance Team information throughout the season. Check back regularly for schedules, updates, recital details, competition information, and important announcements.

HANDBOOK, CONTRACT, & GROWTH PLAN WORKSHEET

Please review the information below before your Growth Plan Meeting. A printed copy of the contract will be provided at your meeting for signatures and final questions. We will also fill out the Growth Plan worksheet together with your dancer.

HOW PLACEMENTS WORK

At Ignite, placements are about more than just skill level.

Our goal is to place dancers where they will:

  • Grow

  • Build confidence

  • Be challenged appropriately

  • Contribute to a strong team environment

Dancers are evaluated by independent judges alongside studio leadership. Placements are based on multiple factors including technique, performance quality, work ethic, coachability, readiness, and team dynamic.

Every placement is made thoughtfully with both individual growth and overall team strength in mind.

GROWTH PLAN MEETINGS

Growth Plan Meetings are for both the dancer and parent/guardian to attend together.

During the meeting, we will review the Team Handbook, sign the Dance Team Commitment Contract, and discuss goals for the upcoming season. We would also love to hear your dancer’s personal goals as they begin SZN 9.

Handbooks and contracts will be emailed in advance for families to review before their meeting as soon as they are finalized.

Each Dance Team will have its own individualized handbook this season.
