Competition Training

Those of you who are keen to make dancing your chosen sport (Dancesport) can take your dancing to a whole new level.

At UCan2 we aim to train our competition dancers to international standard. We have an unrivalled history of taking dancers from beginner class right through to the top competition level where they enjoy success in New Zealand and around the world.

There are frequent competitions in New Zealand, and for those who aspire to reach goals beyond their backyard, there are many excellent competition events in our nearest neighbours - Australia and Asia (to where our dancers travel to compete).

Private lessons are required and the UCan2 Training Squad (by invitation only) offers in-depth technical training.

The pre-paid term fee includes:

• Training Squad group class (Wednesday)
• Juv/Jnr Technical Training Group (Sunday)
• Yth/Ad Technical Training Group (Sunday)
• Practice Session (Sunday)
• New Vogue class (Thursday)
• Participation in all 'Social' and Medal Classes
• Participation in all Workshops is essential for Training Squad members
