Question: High school dance team!. !?
I want to join my high school dance team next year, my senior year, and I am a good dancer but I never took any classes, does anyone know the requirements to join a HS dance team!? I cannot do a toe touch or anything!. Is a year long enough to prepare to join the team!?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
A year is plenty of time!. Most high school teams want you to have dance experience and be able to do a split!. Start taking classes now!. Or a workshop during the summer!. Practice pirouettes and other turns!. As for your toe touch!. PRACTICE IT! =) don't tell yourself you can't do!. just practice and practice and you will get it!. most high school teams put a toe touch in the try-out dance, so I would really work on it!. Go on youtube and search "just for kix" they have tons of instructional videos on dance!. Learn what they show you and practice it over the next year!. Hopefully you will be more then prepared by next year!. good luck

okay!.!.!.a year is enough time!.
but you really need to strectch a lot like everyday
you most likely will need to be able to do the following!.!.
heel stretch
left, right, and possibly middle split!.
high kicks
grand shatay(leap)
and pirroutes


try to get all these things!.!.maybe take a few dance classes to learn how to actually dance!.!.like get into the music and move the rigt way!.

also practice learning coureography quickly!.!.because they wont wait for you to catch on!.

another thing is act confident and look like a dancer!. wear black pants stirrup tights, a simple tank top and jazz shoes!. also wear your hair in a high pony or bun so you look professional and serious about dancing!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

A year is definitely long enough to prepare for a dance team!. There are requirements, I assume!. The requirements are different at each school!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
