The Sawyer Dance Troupe
Sawyer Dance Troupe competes at regional and national dance competitions throughout the year, hosts guest artist workshops, and represents the Sawyer Dance Academy by performing at community-wide events. Dancers in this program are extremely dedicated to the art of dance, attend classes and rehearsals several times a week, and practice outside of rehearsal times as well.
This audition-only group is open to any area dancer 9 years of age and up who has had at least 2 years of dance training. Once chosen for the group, members must be enrolled in a dance class, either at the Sawyer Dance Academy or at their home studio, throughout the school year. Our dancers compete in a variety of techniques including contemporary ballet, jazz, tap, modern, lyrical, musical theatre, and clogging. Auditions are held once a year, usually in May. Audition information will be posted here as it becomes available.
Applications for 2024 - 2026 competition season are available. Dancer's wishing to join the troupe may contact the Director for more information. Contact: Deb Knuth 269-266-2119
