The Immortal Dance Force Competitive Dance Team

 

Immortal Dance Force provides an intense growth opportunity for the driven student who loves to compete and excels in a team environment. Our goal is to enhance the student’s dance experience by competing in two dance competitions and supporting them to rise to each challenge. With ‘team’ at the heart of it’s members and educators, this program is driven by disciplined collaboration, healthy competition, tenacity, and technical growth.

Immortal Dance Force is a Gotta Dance Performance Ensemble. Their debut season was in the Fall of 2012, and through hard work and team building, they were rewarded with tremendous success. In 13 years, Immortal Dance Force has grown to become a dance team with a very successful record in competitive dance.

Immortal Dance Force

Below are some of the benefits of attending a competition as a team:

1. Bond as a Team in a New Dance Environment
2. Learn New Choreography from New Teachers at a Fast Pace
3. Build Confidence for Future Auditions By Challenging Dancers to Pick Up New Choreography Quickly
4. Gain Fresh Perspective & Experience with Various Dance Styles
5. Inspire Dancers to Excel at Competition

November Competitions 
Rehearsals & Groupings:
All Immortal dancers rehearse and compete with their subject group.  Specific schedules will be released on March 15th in the Fall Team Immortal Contract. Competition Schedules are released at the discretion of the Competitions themselves, and weekends will be chosen once the Competitions have released their schedules. We ask all Immortal Dance Force members to keep November weekends open until the schedules have been finalized.

Contract
Dancers will be assigned a group by discipline & level based on their audition score.

Elite Invitational Team
The Elite Invitational Team comprises the top-scoring Jazz and Contemporary Teen & Senior dancers from our January Company Auditions. These dancers compete in two additional competitions during the Winter/Spring season for a total of four competitions yearly. Dancers on this team are invited to compete in Jazz and/or Contemporary group(s) and rehearse multiple times during the week and weekend from September through February. These dancers are typically enrolled in jazz, contemporary, multiple ballet classes, and other styles such as Acro, Tap, and Hip-Hop. All dancers on this team are encouraged to compete in solos, duos, and trios in Jazz and Contemporary and may also compete in additional solos, duos, and trios in other various styles based on their audition scores. Dancers on this team are talented, committed dancers who take their dance technique, training, and performance quality very seriously, and many of them go on to dance in college and professionally. At Competition, the Elite Invitational Team competes in the most advanced difficulty category and consistently wins first place overall awards for their style and age categories, receives choreography awards, technique awards, top adjudications, judges awards, regional titles, and bids to nationals. Recently, the Elite Invitational Team received a “People’s Choice” nomination for the Industry Dance Awards in Hollywood, California this summer for their Contemporary piece, Heartbeats.
