What is a Competitive Dance Company? Competitive dance is for the dancer who wants to become more involved in dance and take his/her dance training to the next level. As a competitive dancer, one will receive advanced technical training that is designed to challenge and inspire him or her to grow both as a dancer and as a person. At GDU, we believe competitive dance also teaches important life lessons including teamwork, self confidence, dedication, and perseverance. GDU Star Company is a serious commitment. Once you have committed to our company you must remember that we require you to make us your FIRST COMMITMENT. Classes, rehearsals, and performances must take precedence over all other extra-curricular activities.
What are dance competitions? Dance competitions are events where dance studios in an area (usually the state) come together to compete against each other with pre-choreographed dance routines. Competition categories are generally grouped by dance style, group size, and age of competitor(s). A panel of professional judges will score the dance, and provide comments and critiques. Winners receive awards, prizes, and chances to compete at higher-level competition (National Championships).

There is just nothing like the art form of dance. It is truly powerful. Sometimes it tells a story, sometimes it brings out emotions that words simply cannot express, and sometimes it allows us to honor someone in a way that will stay with us forever. ❤️For this Saturday Spotlight, we are looking back at Evermore, a beautiful and emotional piece choreographed by Ms. Kaila in honor of a very special young girl named Asia.Asia was one of Ms. Kaila’s students at Creekland Middle School. She was a bright light to everyone who knew her, and her kindness left a lasting impact. Her motto was, “It costs nothing to be kind.” What a beautiful legacy to leave behind.Through this dance, Ms. Kaila was able to share a little piece of Asia's story and the incredible impact she had on those around her.This is so much more than just a dance. It is a reminder of why we do what we do, how powerful this art form can be, and how lucky we are to be able to tell stories like Asia's through movement.We hope you take a moment to watch, remember Asia, and spread a little extra kindness today. 💕 ...
