[quote=Anonymous]I heard from someone high up in the dance world that they are having trouble finding good, solid dancers these days due to the explosion in dance teams and competitions. The kids don't get the solid fundamentals and individual attention that we did back in the day. The kids look great as a team, but separate one of them out and they're severely lacking in basic skills. If you want you daughter to flop around in super-expensive glitzy costumes, dance team at 7 would be a good choice, but if you think she's really going to be a dancer, find a real studio that can give her the kind of thoughtful training she would need and hold off on team until later. Most proper studios will have a Nutcracker or some sort of event in addition to the end-of-the-year recital if she's interested in performing. [/quote]
