Avery Ranch Teams

Participating in a team at ARDM is for our most committed and talented dancers. Our award-winning teams offer an advanced placement training program reaching beyond that of our public studio classes. Dancers receive training from hand-selected expert instructors holding university degrees in dance. Our teams are all part of the Petrichor Dance Connection umbrella.

Our Petrichor Dance Connection curriculum is designed especially for dancers with an interest and aptitude for the serious study of dance. Annual auditions are held for team placement across a variety of dance styles and various ages. Petrichor is looking for dancers who would benefit from an extra challenge and additional performance opportunities. Petrichor dancers have great attitudes and love showing up for class.
