BCA Competition Teams

Our Competition Teams are developed to create a positive environment where young dancers can grow as performers and teammates, as well as increase their self-esteem, self-discipline, and pride in their accomplishments. Brookfield Center for the Arts has teams for all levels, from beginner level dancers who want a team experience, to top level dancers looking to perform at a National and World competition level. The goal of our Teams Program is to develop dancers of all backgrounds and abilities to thrive at their full potential. At BCA, we believe that dance lessons teach life lessons and every part of a dancer’s season is an opportunity for them to grow. From auditions, to making new friends, to hard work, training, wins, losses and beyond...dance is a journey that teaches lessons that last a lifetime. If you are looking for a program that values the process, not just the reward at the end, teams is for you!
