Dancing & Stretching

I have several playlists that you can use to improve your dance abilities and flexibility!

TIP: If you are not much of a dancer then I would suggest focusing on jazz/musical theatre styles of dance because that is the most common type of styles taught in auditions.

Schools don't have a preference between tan and black jazz shoes so whichever you prefer is best!

I would suggest matte tap shoes over shiny ones because they appear more professional.
