(regular font) Dance
List recitals and Competitions here

A beginner Should always put down as much as they can!. If you don't have professional experience, you need to let them know what you do have!.

Or you could put recitals under experience and competitions under training!. It's up to you!.
make sure you put your dance classes under training as well!.

if you are a hard core dancer which you sound like you are and i am too i have a dance section on my resume however dont put competitions and recitals down because those arent very professional things

i put down things like The Nutcracker, Dracula, Hansel and Gretel, Swan Lake etc because those are very theatrical forms of dance so if you have done stuff like that put it down otherwise just put your dance studio under training and how many years(for example '99-'08)

best of luck!! happy dreaming!!
