Position:Home>Dancing> Can I make my high school dance team?


Question:Do you think I can make it?
I have never taken any serious dance classes. I took hip hop but learned nothing, it was basically for fun.
I'm taking dance as a class right now for PE credit. I'm actually trying in the class and learning terms like "pirouette", "chasse", etc. I am not a flexible person, but we do stretches every day in class. Tryouts are in April. Do you think I'll be able to make my school dance team if I work hard until then?? Or will I have no chance against the current team??

I think that if you take it seriously and continue to practice until tryouts, your chances are pretty good, depending on the skill level of the others trying out. Your flexibility will increase the more you stretch. It might also be a good idea to recruit any friends or relatives with experience in dance to give you some pointers. You could also talk to the coach and find out some things you can be working on and what they're going to be looking for so you can better prepare. It's all about passion and determination. Good luck!
Yes. Other wise boo hoo to you.
idk can u?
Believe in yourself and you can do anything.
with a lot of hard work and practice you can accomplish anything you want, it also depends on the talent of the other girls competing for the spot. Good luck,
no one will know the true answer to that until after April. Work hard in your class, practice lots at home and do your best! That's all you can do really.
depending if there are any other people who are way better
than you


my friends are in the dance team but they have been in dance since they were little

see ill stick to drama
If you put your mind into it you can do anything
Good luck!!!!
First of all you need to work hard. Watch lot of videos on Youtube and try to do the things they do. Even if you don't repeat the exact thing, you will come up with your won style. One things that can make you look different from the other "good" dancers is your attitude. Have a good, arrogant, and confident attitude. Believe me it Will work. For flexibility, just start to go to the gym now, and after you warm up for 30 mns, try to stretch. Sit on the floor, next to a wall, try to push your buddy closer to it. I guarantee you that if you put some effort, and get really warm you will be little bit flexible by April. Be confident girl. It's your feeling that will make you pass the audition. Show that you know what you're doing baby. Good luck!!!!!

PS: I am a dancer and I used to be scared like you.
Of course you can.

I just have to keep working extremely hard.
Best of luck :)
