Spitfire 2020 Teams
Beginner from Scratch SessionsSpitfire’s Beginner from Scratch Sessions are focused within individual or group sessions depending on the time one is registered. Sessions meet each Sunday afternoon of every month unless there is a holiday or canceled practice by directors. Sessions are 30min long and cost $42.00 per month. Once the dancer has been placed on a Spitfire team by the director, tuition will change to $50.00 a month and meet for an hour each week. The purpose of these sessions is to break down the basics of beginner level clogging footwork. The footwork that is taught is primarily traditional clogging with some emphasis on contemporary style. These sessions are offered until the dancer has reached the level to be placed on a team; therefore, the advancement of the dancer skill level is dependent on the new dancer. Typically, new dancers will take a month to a year to be placed on a team. To be placed on a Spitfire team, the new dancer will be expected to know the steps and routines that they are instructed to learn. Beginners are encouraged to perform and participate with Spitfire teams throughout the year.
Practice Time: Each Sunday @1:30pm or 3:30 *depending on director avability (30 min sessions only) Ages: Accepting all ages and all skill levels! No prior dance experince required. Cost: $42.00 a month |
