CLACKAMAS DANCE Performing Company:

CLACKAMAS DANCE Performing Company members are selected by an audition process and/or teacher recommendations. Auditions for the 2012-2013 season will occur on June 14th, 2012 (see home page for details). If you are interested in becoming a CDPAC Performing Company member, please contact the CDPAC office @ 503-650-2353.

CLACKAMAS DANCE Performing Company is for the dancers who display both the talent and ability for a more serious study in dance, along with athletic ability, flexibility, musicality and strong coordination skills, and above all a love of dance.

CLAKAMAS DANCE Performing Company is definitely for serious dance students and although we realize not every student will go onto pursue a career in dance, the dedication of Company Members is similar to that of any team sport. 

CLACKAMAS DANCE Performing Company competes at regional competitions.  These competitions give children a chance to see where their skill level is in comparison to others their same age around the state and Nationally.  It challenges them to strive to become better dancers.  Judges at competitions give critiques on the dancer's performances and emphasize what skills they need to focus on.

There are more aspects of being a company member we would like you to know.  There are dance workshops/conventions that students attend that host numerous classes with the latest steps and techniques taught by the nation’s best professional dancers. These teachers are energized, motivating and inspirational to young dancers. CLACKAMAS DANCE Performing Company also provides students more opportunities to perform in front of audiences. CLACKAMAS DANCE Performing Company may perform in area events such as local and state fairs, parades, charity benefits and area nursing centers. 

It is true company can be very time consuming.  Company parents and dancers should realize that school comes first.  Too many other extracurricular activities can cause conflicts with rehearsal schedules.  However, being involved with outgoing, hardworking children gives kids the opportunity to learn discipline, time management and goal setting, all by doing something they love, dancing.  CLACKAMAS DANCE Performing Company members develop lasting friendships and positive memories that they will cherish for a lifetime.
