Hello All -
This was the letter that was handed out to all the people who came out to the info session on team auditions on Thursday. Just to keep everyone updated on the goings-on/anyone interested, the first day of auditions will be held today at the SUB Ballroom at 5 pm. This is the portion of the audition where you learn a short routine to perform on Tuesday evening at 9 pm SUB Rm. 214/216.

Welcome!
Thank you for your interest in joining the Formation Team. The purpose of the info session tonight is to answer a few of your questions and help you get the idea of what the Formation Team is and what is expected.
This year is the first year that FDS has held and open audition at the beginning of the school year. Our mandate is to provide a platform for people to pursue competitive team dancing as well as nurture interest in competitive ballroom. Formation Teams provides an opportunity for exponential growth in dancing. The learning curve can be steep, but the rewards are gratifying.
Purpose of the Auditions Team A is formed in April and we are currently short a couple of members. We are looking for more individuals who are interested in competing and performing on this team. Team A has started working on a routine with Ekaterina Mitchenko.
We are also looking for new members to start a Team B. This is a pilot project and enthusiasm and dedication is what is required for this team. People who are interested in improving and learning are invited to audition. The purpose of this team is to bridge the gap between tech class/social dancing and the competitive dancing of Team A. Though this pilot project is based on this idea of graduated progression, the finalized Team B will be able to make their own goals. [ie. If competition is what Team B wants, competition is what Team B gets.] Zillion Wong has accepted our request in coaching Team B
So please sign up for Auditions and indicate whether you would like to Audition for Team A, Team B or both.
Good luck and have a great weekend!
