POWERED BY DANCE
GREAT JOB AT COMPTETITION!
COACH'S MESSAGE
Love Being Coaches
A Season to Remember ❤️
What an incredible way to close out our competition season with our concert!
There truly aren't enough words to express how proud we are of each and every Powered By Dance dancer. From the very first rehearsal to the final bow on concert night, you gave your all. You spent countless hours practicing, encouraging one another, pushing through challenges, and never giving up. Every long practice, every drop of sweat, and every moment of hard work led to an unforgettable performance. When you stepped onto that stage, you didn't just perform, you inspired. You danced with confidence, determination, passion, and heart, and it showed in every routine. The smiles, the energy, and the love you have for dance lit up the stage and left a lasting impression on everyone in the audience.
To our amazing parents, thank you for your endless support, encouragement, and countless hours of dedication throughout the season. To our incredible Team Moms, thank you for always going above and beyond behind the scenes, making sure every detail was taken care of. And to our coaches, thank you for your patience, commitment, and the love you pour into each dancer every single day. This concert would not have been possible without all of you.
Since the concert, we have received so many wonderful compliments about the performances, the energy, the professionalism, and the talent displayed by our dancers. Hearing such positive feedback has been incredibly rewarding because it reflects the hard work, determination, and teamwork that went into every rehearsal throughout the year.
As one chapter comes to a close, another exciting one begins! We are now preparing for one of our favorite traditions of the year, our Powered By Dance End-of-the-Year Awards Banquet. This special evening is our opportunity to celebrate every dancer's accomplishments, recognize outstanding achievements, honor our graduating seniors, present scholarships, announce our new leadership team, and create one last unforgettable memory together as a dance family. Our "Frost Yourself" themed banquet will be an elegant evening filled with celebration, laughter, and well-deserved recognition for an amazing season.
Thank you for being part of the Powered By Dance family. Together, we continue to build more than dancers, we build confidence, friendships, leadership, and memories that will last a lifetime.
We can't wait to celebrate with you at the banquet!

Now to a not so pleasant message:
Why Missing Competitions Hurts the Team
Competitions are not optional extras, they are a core part of being on a competitive team. When a dancer misses a competition, it affects more than just that individual.
-
Formations & spacing are impacted. One missing dancer changes visuals, timing, and floor patterns for the entire team.
-
The team loses confidence. Dancers rely on each other. When someone is missing, it creates uncertainty and stress on competition day.
-
Extra pressure on teammates. Other dancers must adjust on the spot, often with no rehearsal time, which isn’t fair to them.
-
Judging and scoring can be affected. Judges notice missing dancers, uneven spacing, and last-minute changes.
-
Team commitment matters. Competitive teams depend on everyone showing up and being reliable. Missing competitions breaks that trust.
Being on a team means committing to the team, not just practices, but competition days too.
Why Arriving at Call Time Is Critical
Call time exists for a reason. Arriving late, even “just a little,” causes a ripple effect for the entire team.
-
Warm-ups are missed. This increases injury risk and affects performance quality.
-
Run-throughs can’t happen. Teams need full attendance to clean spacing, timing, and transitions.
-
Stress levels rise. Late arrivals create unnecessary anxiety for dancers, coaches, and parents.
-
Hair, makeup, and costumes are delayed. One late dancer can hold up the entire group.
-
Respect for the team and staff. Being on time shows respect for teammates, coaches, and the work everyone has put in.
Call time is not a suggestion, it’s the time the team must be fully ready and present.
BOTTOM LINE:
Competitive dance requires discipline, responsibility, and teamwork.
-
Missing competitions hurts the team’s performance and morale.
-
Missing call time disrupts preparation and adds unnecessary stress.
When everyone shows up, on time and prepared, the team can perform with confidence, unity, and pride.
MISSED COMPETITION POLICY:
If a dancer misses a scheduled competition, they will not be permitted to participate in the following competition. In addition, coaches will adjust and rework routine formations as needed. Upon the dancer’s return, placement within the routine is not guaranteed, and the dancer may not return to their original spot.
