prepare technique and do not look nervous... smile the whole time! I tried out and now am the co-captin of my HS dance team, and i know that when I judge, I look for smiles, hard workers, and people that do not seem lazy!

hey!
there sure are!!!!
keep practising on those high kicks and leaps and side leaps, turns, pikes, cartwheels, 4-ways, and stretch :)
good luck!!!
id vote 4 u :)
also its all about the facial expressions as well, look like your having fun and at nervous at all :)

just practice, practice, practice.
mostly u would want to practice hiting beats on the right time. and if your doing a specific routine to try out, make sure you near perfect the moves in that.
also try doing splits everyway to increase flexablity, it helps when ur doing kicks and moves like that. also practice flexing and pointing your toes, because you have to be able to do that alot, and plus it looks nice, and not sloppy. teachers look especially for pointed or flexed toes. normally pointed. other then that northing out of the ordinary. maybe brush up on ur hand stands, cartwheels.

i really hope this helps. just keep practicing. i promise it pays off in the end. even if you get a little stiff.

YES!deff. u can always prepare.
ok stretch like no jokee strech everydayy
practice kicking
turning
the basics
every dayy<33
