We are looking for well rounded dancers with a passion for dance and the University Of Oregon. We are a very stylistic team, so we want dancers with unique movement quality in addition to technical excellence.

In addition to that, we are also looking for dancers with kind hearts and a joyful presence. We pride ourselves on having a family atmosphere on our team, so we are looking for dancers that we believe will add to that environment.

Dancers at the University of Oregon are students first, so we also ask dancers to have good academic performance.

Dancers must be admitted to the University of Oregon to be a member of the team.
