Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
for my school we had to take intro as freshmen and then u could try out for the higher levels including competition and advanced competition!. for our auditions we had to do a choreographed jazz dance and do different leaps across the floor (grand jete, leap in second and a scissor leap) then we had to do turns (4 renversees, 4 fouettes and we had to be able to do a double pirouette) depending on how good you did on those moves and the routine , youd get more points

and the higher number of points, the more likely you make it to a higher level :)

You have to have a little dance experience or a natural ability to learn a routine in a very short time!. Being a little flexible doesn't hurt either sine you will probably be doing kicks and jumps!. I know that here where I live a lot of high school dance teams are required to take a 2 hour technique class every week so you might want to think about that as well!. A lot of dance studios offer them!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well when i tried out for my dance team we learned and jazz/hip hop dance and a pom dance!. then we had to show them splits turns leaps jumps and anything else you could show them!. hope it helps =]Www@QuestionHome@Com
