Erskine Dance Recruitment Clinic & Audition
Erskine Dance Recruitment Clinic & Audition
YOU MUST FILL OUT THE CLINIC FORM TO BE FULLY REGISTERED FOR THIS EVENT. THE CLINIC FORM CAN BE FOUND HERE.
When: April 20, 2024
Where: The Galloway Center | 8 Dode Phillips Rd, Due West, SC 29639
The recruitment clinic is open to ages 13+.
Try-outs are open to rising high school juniors through college transfer students.
During the clinic, dancers will spend time learning a mixture of sideline, pom, and hip-hop performance choreography. They will work on skills across the floor, warm up, and participate in pom basic drills with the Erskine College Dance Team. Dancers are welcome to bring their poms for the sideline/pom portion of the day (we won’t be using poms during auditions for technique purposes). We will open the clinic up to parents/friends, etc. during the last 30 minutes. We ask that all dancers come performance-ready with their attire, hair, and make-up done as if they are going through an audition.
Dancers who plan to audition for the program will want to attend the clinic to learn the material for it. Auditions will include skill performances, improv, and material from the clinic. The judges may ask you questions about yourself following the audition. Solo performances are an optional performance for dancers who are auditioning. This is so that we can see them perform a dance that is familiar to them. If a dancer has a parent/friend they would like to video their solo they can watch this part of the audition as long as the dancer is comfortable with it. There will be a break between the clinic and the material review for dancers to get lunch. The material review will consist of a review of the audition materials and will include open time for dancers to work on their own and get feedback from the Coach/Judges. Auditions will begin after the review time is completed and dancers will be broken up into groups based on their year in school. Once group auditions are completed there will be time for soloists to change and warm up on the floor before performing.
