Competitive Dance Company

From ages 4-18, our competitive level dance program is focused on students who want to dance professionally. The core of the program is centered around dedication and team work from every member. Carrie Hirschman-Parker develops a sound platform for every dancer. Her vision is to create a healthy learning environment that gives each child the attention and instruction they need to succeed. However, in class room instruction must be followed up by continuous practice and dedication from every student. Auditions to participate in the competitive dance company take place at the start of the dance year usually in July or August. Please call for additional details.
The competitive dance company participates in 3-4 competitions within the St. Louis, MO area every year. They do a National Competition every other year which usually requires traveling. The Competitive Dance Company requires the following from every student:

• Sacrifice
• Dedication
• Team Work
• Responsibility
• Hard Work

In return, the kids receive rewards for their achievements which ultimately lead them to become better dancers who understand that hard work always pays off in the end. Just like the recreational team, the competitive dance teachers are focused on the development of your child but at a much more serious level.
