Pom Team Auditions

We’re excited to see your skills in action! Good luck!

POM TEAM INFO

Our Pom teams combine precise, synchronized movement with strong technical dance skills, including jumps, turns, and leaps. While rooted in a jazz style, Pom routines also include elements of Kick and are known for their high energy, sharp formations, and strong visual impact. They are exciting to perform- and to watch!

  • Rehearsals take place on Sunday afternoons/evenings and are approximately one hour long.
  • All Pom dancers are required to enroll in a weekly recreational class in Tap/Jazz, Ballet, or Lyrical to support continued technical growth.
  • Pom teams are open to dancers ages 7 and up.
  • Teams will participate in three regional competitions per season, all of which include a Pom-specific category.
  • Every other year is a Nationals year; in those years, teams will attend a Nationals competition located in Minnesota or Wisconsin. (2025–2026 is NOT a Nationals season)
  • Additional performance opportunities may include community events, fundraisers, and appearances at assisted living facilities.
