SOLO CHOREOGRAPHY TERMS & AGREEMENT

Performing solo choreography can be an extremely fun and rewarding experience! Dancers who participate in solo choreography receive great benefits from one-on-one time with their instructor and are guided to push the limits of their potential. Learning, mastering, and performing a solo can help dancers gain confidence by teaching them how to set goals and achieve them and by providing opportunities to show off what they do best. Performing a solo takes hard work and dedication to excellence. Dancers must be committed to practicing on their own consistently and have a responsibility to do whatever is necessary to perform at their best and highest potential.
