How do I join a Competition Team?

For this year, auditions will be conducted via video submission. If you're interested in joining one of our Competition Teams, please contact us for more information about the submission process and requirements.

Do I need dance experience to join?

5

No - Our Open Classes are perfect for beginners and dancers of all experience levels, making them a great place to start your dance journey.

Our Competition Teams train at Intermediate and Advanced levels and are designed for dancers with previous dance experience. Entry into our Competition Teams is by audition only.

What should I wear to class?

6

All dancers are required to wear all black to class, along with their Muse Dancewear uniform. Please choose comfortable dancewear that allows you to move freely.

  • Hair must be neatly tied up in either a ponytail or bun for all classes.

  • Teens and seniors should wear supportive sports bras to ensure comfort and proper support during training.

  • Trainers must be worn for Commercial classes — this is extremely important for both safety and performance in this style.

  • iets frans joggers are only permitted in Commercial classes and are not allowed in any other styles.

  • For Jazz, Contemporary, lyrical and Acro classes, dancers should be barefoot. Socks are not allowed due to slipping hazards.

  • For Technique, Dance Fitness, and Acro Skills classes, dancers must wear tight-fitted clothing. This allows teachers to properly see body lines and technique, while also ensuring safety during training.

We offer classes for a range of age groups from 5-19 years. Please contact us to find the best class for your dancer.
