Open Auditions for the 2025-2026 Flight Dance Team and Jr. Flight Dance Team (Sept-May) will be held Saturday, August 23rd at 10 am at the C.R.O.W. Center for the Performing Arts. The address is: 3120 Hwy 101 in Florence.
Dancers will learn a dance combination to demonstrate their dance skills, and will be judged on their performance in the categories of: technique, memorization, and stage presence. All dancers (ages 8+) are welcome and encouraged to audition.
Some dancers may be invited to become an apprentice, depending on skill.
ABOUT THE PROGRAM:
The Flight Dance Team was created in 2017, as a way for young dancers of the OR coast to improve technique, expression, and precision in a fun and supportive atmosphere. The Jr. Flight Dance team was added in 2025 as an opportunity for our younger dancers who wish to strengthen their dance training and future opportunities in dance.
Flight & Jr. Flight Dance Team members receive a personalized jacket upon acceptance into the team.
Flight and Jr. Flight's goals include local and regional performances, competitive dance, and providing the community with entertaining and thought provoking works of art, through the power of movement. The Flight and Junior Flight Dance Teams perform in the annual Holly Jolly Follies, the Spring Youth Mainstage Musical, and in a Spring Dance Showcase on the mainstage of the Florence Events Center, plus other events.
Both teams MAY be invited to attend up to 3 dance competitions in nearby larger cities (TBA). Both directors would like to pursue this avenue. However, the decision will be dependent on skills, availability, and overall audition turnout. If there is enough interest, we will pursue this!
Auditions are held annually, and dancers must re-audition each year to maintain their place on the team.
To be considered for team placement, dancers must have and maintain strong dance technique and flexibility, take at least two additional dance classes year round, and be an excellent all around performer. Priority is placed on teamwork, dedication, motivation, individual and team growth mindset, and overall work ethic. Dancers who do not meet team requirements or exhibit negative or divisive behavior may be asked to leave the team.
The Flight Dance Team is Directed and Choreographed by Melanie Heard, C.R.O.W.'s Artistic Director and Founder. The Jr. Flight Dance team is Directed and Choreographed by Elyse Stewart. For bios and photos of the Directors, please visit:
