Pro/Am Competitions

We encourage our students to get involved in competitive dancing. Competitions are a great way to keep you focused.

Here is the path we recommend:

• Start with some studio performances at a practice or guest party, to give yourself a goal to work towards. You will see an increase in the rate of your improvement almost immediately.
• Become more courageous by participating in a FADS Showcase. You will get a feeling for how exciting it is to perform in front of people.
• Participate in one the Fred Astaire Dance Competitions or any other independent ones. Check your progress, compare yourself to other dancers and get your first "reality check" on what do the judges think of your dancing.
  If you do not have a partner - no problem - you can ask your teacher to dance with you in Pro-Am division.
• Go for it at an Amateur competition!
