Flatirons Dance Academy’s mission states that it is committed to bringing quality dance instruction to local schools and communities. According to the mission, each class focuses on the history, vocabulary, technique, and cultural context behind dance. The mission also states that classes foster structured and supportive interactions with classmates, give practice in problem-solving, build academic and artistic skills, and highlight the importance of teamwork, collaboration, and positive group interaction.
The Competitive Dance Program includes several distinct tracks. The Competition Team offers two group dances, three competitions, weekly rehearsals, one required technique class plus one additional weekly class, and team bonding and performance experiences. The Protégé Program for ages 4–7 includes three group dances, three competitions, one convention, weekly ballet, technique and rehearsals, and is described as a direct pathway into Company. Company is an advanced, pre-professional training program with multiple group dances plus Production, at least three competitions, at least two conventions, up to two specialty dances (only one solo), a required Company Summer Training Program from June through July, and required Company classes during the season. The Crew is for dancers on their high school dance team and has a shortened season, two group dances with a single-hour rehearsal, three competitions, and allows only one specialty dance. Specialty dances are defined as solos, duets, and trios, and anyone in the competition program is allowed to do a specialty dance, depending on program limits of one or two specialty dances.
