Fade to black competition team

Howdy! My name is Jordyn Ford and I am the Director of Competition for Fade to Black. This year we are pushing the bounds of what Fade to Black is by adding a competition team! With the addition of this brand-new element, dancers will be given the opportunity to experience the dance world from a competitive perceptive as they continue to grow as strong and confident dancers. 

This team will be comprised of dancers who can pay attention to detail, step out of their comfort zone, and above all, PERFORM! As a team, we will learn and prepare a set (5-7 minute dance) during the fall semester and attend competitions in the spring semester in which we will compete against other hip-hop teams. The Fade to Black Competition team is a year-long commitment, meaning that auditions will only take place each year in the fall, which is all the more reason to join our family now and build a community with us. 

FAQ:

"Do I need prior dance experience to audition?"

Although it is recommended to have prior dance experience it is not necessary to succeed in the audition process.

"When are practices?"

Practices will be every Wednesday from 9 pm to 11 pm at the Student Rec.

"Do I need to be on the Fade to Black Performance team to be on the competition team?"

Yes, the performance team comes first so everyone that is selected for the competition team must also be on the performance team as well.

"How many are we taking?"

There won’t be a maximum number of members. We will accept as many as we feel deserve a spot on the team, however the goal is around 20-30 dancers. 

"Is this team Co-Ed?"

Yes! We are huge on diversity and inclusivity so everyone and anyone is welcome to audition.  

"How much are dues?"

$100 per semester ($200 total)

"How do auditions work?"

Auditions will be at the same time as the auditions for the performance team. You will not have to learn an extra dance for the competition audition, all you have to do is state that you are auditioning for the competition team on your application. Results for both the performance and competition teams will be sent out on the same day.
