The Annual Festival
The Festival is the year's grand finale.
Each year in the spring member companies meet at a host city and spend four
days sharing all aspects of the art of dance.
Classes are held in ballet, jazz, pointe,
character, modern and pas de deux. Seminars are held on theatrical
make-up, nutrition, dance injury prevention, musicality, and other dance
related subjects taught by professionals in their fields.
Performances are held each evening, showcasing
the member companies and giving them the chance to show the growth they have
achieved throughout the year. An impartial adjudicator, renowned in
the field of dance, selects the works. Through the adjudication
process, Artistic Directors are given constructive criticism by the
adjudicator which is designed to help maintain the high standards of
Regional Dance and promote the further growth and development of the
companies, directors and dancers.
