Audition Track - 6 Week Prep Course

$140 Purchase required to enroll




Audition Track is for AerialCLT students who have already performed in the student showcase a minimum of 2 times, not necessarily on the same apparatus, and would like to have more independence in the creative process. Instead of a guided 8 week choreography course, you choreograph on your own during practice time and present your rough draft in an audition (the first date of the course you enroll in). If you pass (and you will because you are awesome!), you then will participate in a four week refinery course. The sixth week will be dress rehearsal.

Time Line:
Week 1: Audition
Week 2: Work!
Week 3: Polish!
Week 4: Perfect!
Week 5: Solidify!
Week 6: Dress Rehearsal

How Student Showcase's work in 3 easy steps:
  1. Enroll in a Course that fits your schedule.
  2. Attend practice times once they open for showcase participants (unless you already have clearance to attend practice time)
  3. Audition on the first date of the course time. If for any reason you do not pass the audition, a make up MAY be given. If it is not an option, a full refund will be issued back to the credit card used for purchase or as account credit (your choice! We are flexible)
  4. Throughout the 4 classes, you will have focused performance prep exercises, group critiques, solo critiques, and a dress rehearsal to get you prepared for the big day.
  5. Perform your heart out at the showcase.
