AK Junior Competition Team

AK's Junior Competition Team has both Pom & Dance and is for twirlers who want to keep learning & expanding on their skills, while dipping their toes into competitive twirling. Adding in dance technique, flexibility, and Pom dance all goes hand in hand with twirling. The Junior Competition Team with Pom & Dance runs all year long, practicing 2 hours per week - 1 hour of twirling & 1 hour of dance & pom technique. They will learn multiple routines, how to do team exchanges, and harder, more difficult skills and material than our recreation classes. Twirlers will also gain more coordination, flexibility, and gracefulness with the addition of dance & pom class. The routines they learn & perfect throughout the year are performed at two baton competitions (usually between March & May). Junior Competition with Pom & Dance twirlers also have the opportunity to compete in individual events at competitions. The team also performs at holiday parades and various other community events throughout the season.

Twirlers must have taken at least 1 year of one of our Recreation Classes to be eligible for the Junior Competition Team & have permission from the Director to move up. There are also Baton Only or Pom Only options available for this team at 1 hour of practice per week for $70 per month.

Acro I or II, guided Individuals Practice session, and an additional Dance Technique class can all be added onto our Junior Competition Team.
