Key Note Company

Starting a new dance program is a very difficult decision both for the dancer and their family. Staccato Dance Works is a family in itself and welcomes new dancers throughout the year.  Dance competitions by nature turn performing into a sport and instructors into choreographers that coach. Staccato Staff are qualified, award-winning choreographers and dance educators who teach students to focus on the love of dance and performing. Students are taught to work as a team toward their fullest potential as artists, athletes, and performers.

Competitive students dance anywhere from 2 - 4 days per week and are required to attend various competitions and conventions to supplement their education each year.  Ample time will be given to planning events into schedules. Extenuating circumstances will be taken in consideration on an individual basis. 

Being a member of our Key Note Company  is a wonderful opportunity to develop technical dance skills while making great friends and building confidence. Our company students experience the joy of performing at various regional dance competition events in the area and working together with their team to learn and grow as dancers. This is a full school-year commitment, September through August, and requires regular attendance in classes and rehearsals.

We welcome new dancers into our competitive program each year. If you are new to our studio or interested in learning how to be on our dance team please contact our office to schedule a meeting.

All requirements must be taken at Staccato Dance Works and level placement is based on instructor and director evaluation. Current students please contact the office for competition entry fees, costumes, choreography and additional information related to your participation.
