New for 2025-2026
ICON MINI PERFORMANCE TEAM
Every competitive dancer starts somewhere!
Icon Dance Company for the 2025-2026 Season introduces the Mini Performance Team! This team is joinable by invite only. Teachers and Staff have been observing your dancers all season and will determine if your dancer is ready to step into the competitive world of dance. We aim to encourage young dancers to participate and challenge themselves younger so they may be better prepared and ready for the stage as they grow and learn. This program is for ages 5-6. Invitations will be emailed privately to each individual Icon Dance Company feels is ready to participate.
