mmm well that helps that you know how to do splits and leaps and stuff ( make sure you know turns!), but that stuff doesn't always make all the difference. dance is more than just showing off alll that stuff, you have to really feel the music and know the beat. soo i'd just say, keep practicing, and don't focus on techniques all the time. have fun with it =)
for auditions, just be confident and smile and don't overthink it. if you overthink it, you're more likely to freak out and get really nervous. just do the moves as many times as you can in your head, then it'll all come naturallly whenyou do it in front of the judges.
good luck!

make sure you have good techinque. at least a double turn. high leaps, right, left, and center split. as long as you have the basics and you can pick up choreography good. you will be greaaaat (=

if dancing is your passion then go for it. dont let anything hold you back. take a dive and swim in it.
good luck i hope you make it!!!!!!!!

make sure you can do basic ballet, because they may not ask for fun ballet, but all good judges can see whether a dancer has had ballet training or not. Technique is also very important and listening to counts and music. A dancer is the most advanced Milti-tasker, you have to know your spacing, your movements of:legs,arms,head,facing, so learning can be difficult. But to learn faster stop looking at the teacher or choreographer every time they do a repeat. Do it once or twice and try to memorize it, then try it again w/o looking at the teacher or choreographer and see how much you remember, so its like you are testing yourself. You have been a dancer for 10years you will be fine.. GOOD LUCK!! and HAVE FUN!!!
