Our ESD competitive Performance Division (PD) team is rewarding team experience for those dedicated to a higher level of training intensity and performance quality. To provide optimal instruction, students who would like to pursue the competitive PD team are assessed by our faculty and placed into the division and classes that are best matched to nurture them to grow in their talent and potential.

Dancers are REQUIRED to take the appropriate mandatory Intensive technique classes at their level for each PD class. NO EXCEPTIONS.
