The Studio L Competitive team, “The Larkin Dancers”, allow those with a passion for dance to showcase their abilities in the nation’s elite competitions. In addition to achieving the highest level of competitive success the company has been invited to perform at such prestigious events around the country. Our Company has also had the opportunity to get involved with organizations such as The Make a Wish Foundation, Tomorrow’s Children, and the Ronald McDonald House. At Studio L, we seek to make a difference not only in our student’s lives but in our community as well.
Each year candidates are selected entirely from those students who attend and audition at the conclusion of our summer dance camps. During the school year our youngest company members (average age 6) attend dance classes twice a week and our most advanced members attend 3 days. Rehearsals are scheduled during the year for learning new choreography and preparing for competitions and performances. For those younger students who exhibit a love for dance we offer a Pre-Competitive program with an hour and a half to three hours of dance classes during the week. These students have the opportunity to dance at a more advanced level and develop the technique required to become a “Larkin Dancer”.
