Fusion: Train harder. Compete more.
Fusion is our intermediate competition team, for dancers who have proven the basics and are ready for more routines, more training, and bigger stages.
The honest fit
Fusion dancers have outgrown the entry level. They hold corrections week to week, handle more choreography, and are ready to chase overall placements and convention scholarships.
Fusion sits between Kickstart, our entry company, and The Core, our elite company. Every dancer is placed by audition each May; dancers who score within two points of the next tier may be placed on both teams.
Fusion on the floor
Two recent Fusion routines, from our youngest dancers to our teens.
6 required classes, across three pillars

Six events, all included
Routines are taught in summer choreography sessions, cleaned in fall rehearsals, and competed January through May.
All six are mandatory and included in your Company Membership. Optional competitions and conventions can be added for solos, duos, and trios once each event releases pricing.

What we ask of every Fusion family
Attendance is mandatory
Classes and rehearsals are required. Sick or truly unavoidable conflict? Contact us in advance so we can plan around it.
It is a full-season commitment
The Company runs July through May. Mid-season withdrawal leaves the family responsible for everything already fulfilled: taught choreography, ordered costumes, rehearsal fees through the withdrawal month, and event fees already paid.
We protect the culture
Gossip and drama have no place here, in person or online. If something is not working, come to us first; nearly every conflict is solved with one honest conversation.
Two paths onto Fusion

Next auditions: Saturday, May 22, 2027. Before auditions, you complete a commitment survey telling us how many routines and how much your family can commit to; casting stays within it.
