Musicality is what takes you from a dancer to an entertainer, and pro dance needs you to be entertaining.

One tip I give all the dancers in our programs: listen to the music you are dancing to with headphones on so you can feel the music in your body and know exactly where the moves need to land.

Intentional reps mean you’re practicing with a specific goal, getting feedback, and adjusting each time so that by the time auditions come around, the real version of you shows up naturally instead of the nervous version. by @thecultivatecode

Freestyle is not the place to prove you learned something new this week.

Dancers walk in with a trick they picked up the night before, hoping it lands.

Judges aren’t scoring you on your tricks. They’re scoring whether you own your movement.

One fall on something unfamiliar or that you can’t nail 99% of the time and that’s the only thing they remember from your whole audition.

Your freestyle should show what you have drilled a hundred times, not what you think you can pull off once. by @thecultivatecode

What should you wear for pro dance auditions?

Most dancers prepare one outfit for every team they try out for. Every team is looking for something different. Some teams are edgier, some are more classic, and the attire standards, nylons, tattoos, hair and makeup, all shift depending on what team you’re auditioning for.

This is the research most dancers skip and don’t think about until you’re in front of the judges. And it’s something the judges notice first.

Save this for your next audition. by @thecultivatecode

If you’re planning on auditioning for the first time for an NFL or NBA dance team, here’s what you should do first

1. Research the leagues and teams to see what’s the best fit for you
2. Make sure you have your fundamental 3 technique elements locked in
3. Work on your your pro dance resume (comment resume for a template)
4. Make sure your social media is presentable
5. Get your fitness and nutrition locked in
