Season 3: 2024 - 2025
Competition Team Auditions
Calling all passionate dancers eager to join our competition teams! To be considered, attendance at one of our auditions is a must. Alternatively, you can arrange a private one-on-one audition with our studio owner, Miss Bri.
Our auditions play a crucial role in determining dance routines, assessing skills and levels for fall + spring classes, and more.
In December 2024, the application process for our competition team will kick off. This mandatory application helps us gauge your commitment, previous experience, and the goals you aspire to achieve within the team. Rest assured, your application details will be kept strictly confidential.
As we move forward, we'll be hosting virtual and in-person Info Sessions on our competition team throughout the spring. For any inquiries in the meantime, or to schedule a private meeting, feel free to contact Miss Bri at brianna@luckystaer.dance.
Competition Team Application
To be part of our competitive programs, every dancer must complete the Competition Team Application. Even if you're still deciding on attending auditions, feel free to submit an application. This helps our studio owner, Miss Bri, understand your interest and goals for our program.
Rest assured, all application information is treated with the utmost confidentiality.
Make sure to submit your applications by 11:59 PM on the day before auditions (June 13th for the first set of auditions and June 21st for the second set).

4:30 - 7:30 PM: Interviews Day Spark Competition Team Prospects
If you're eyeing a spot on our premier competition team, Spark, get ready for a one-on-one interview with our studio owner, Miss Bri. No need for dance attire—comfort is key. On this day, dancers won't be showcasing their moves; instead, they'll be delving into their goals, aspirations within Spark, and handling situational leadership questions.
For Spark, we're on the lookout for enthusiastic, positive leaders who crave improvement and relish a challenging yet uplifting dance experience. We envision our Spark dancers as role models both within our studio and at various events we attend.
