[quote=Anonymous]I would look carefully at this to evaluate whether it's really a highly competitive team or a way for the studio to make a lot of money. Yes, there are highly competitive teams around, and young dancers who are going on to dance careers, etc. My impression of these dance teams, however, is that they are often a revenue generator. Yes, your daughter might get something out of it. But will that counterbalance the time and expense for a kid that age? Can you look at her honestly and say she's an extremely talented dancer and if so, is this the best way to develop her talent (as opposted to enrolling her at Strathmore or some other place that really fosters dance talent)? And do you ahave a full understanding of the costs? I have a friend whose daughter does this and they have to have six or seven new costumes for each set of routines. It's thousands of extra dollars per year.[/quote]
