Does anyone know the requirments to be on a public highschools Dance Team?

Question

im a freshman wanting to tryout for my highschool dance team. ive danced pretty much my whole life. I do ballet, hip-hop, and musical theater. -problem is, i cant do the splits. and im pretty sure that at tryouts for the dance team your going to have to be able to do the splits to make the team. also a few of my friends have told me that at tryouts for cheerleading you have to be able to do a backhand spring, so with that in mind, what would be the requirements for the Dance Team? please help, because whatever it is im gunna have to learn it in three weeks :X

Answer 1

lol, you are in

trust me, with all that you can do, no doubt about it.

i believe they have audition so you have to do it.

but i am pretty sure you wil be accepted

Answer 2

it's different for each school and the # of ppl trying out and the skill level of those people.

but idk they'll reject u simply cause u cant do the splits(?)

Answer 3

mm it depends on what type of dance team..i was on drill team in high school and basically we needed to know how to do jetes, switch leaps, double pirouettes, splits right and left, toe touches, and that's about it i believe..also they usually teach you a routine and you'll have to perform it for a judge in a group of about four

however, with your dance experience i wouldn't worry..i couldn't do the splits when i tried out and i still made it :)  Good Luck!!
