However, we do provide other opportunities for our students to perform outside of recital. In addition to our annual Nutcracker performance, we also have a performing Group called, "Inside Out".
Inside Out focuses on the Art of Dance through expression and performance, with performances throughout the school year. This is for the student who feels dance is where they want to dedicate their free time to and would like to participate in more performance opportunities. Through Inside Out we also provide more educational experiences for the more serious dancer, such as field trips to professional performances, and master class opportunities.

All Dances will have 2 understudies: If you are cast as an understudy you will not have to pay for rehearsals! You will not have to pay for a costume! Chances are very good you will get to dance, as there will be times that a dancer cannot attend a show. You may dance in a show if someone cannot attend. You may replace a dancer if a dancer becomes injured for the duration of their injury. You may replace a dancer permanently if a dancer drops out or does not meet the attendance standard.
MAKE SURE TO READ THE REVERSE SIDE FOR RULES AND COMPANY FEES
Fees and Rules once accepted into Woodinville Dance Academy’s inside Out Dance Company

~ if you are in Ballet company, you must be taking Ballet technique class, if you are in Tap
Company you must be taking Tap technique class, if in Hip Hop must be taking Hip Hop etc.
MANDATORY PARENT AND STUDENT MEETING: There will be a mandatory meeting for all company members before each audition. All company members must attend this with a parent! Parents must attend this meeting.
Company Fees: $80 dollar Company fee for new company members (due at first school year rehearsal). $40 dollar Company fee per student if you were in Company last year (if you need to order a new sweatshirt the cost will be an additional $40). Fee is non refundable, even if you are removed from the Company or if you drop out of the company.
Rehearsal & Costume Fees: Monthly rehearsal payments as per rehearsal schedule. You will also be expected to pay for a costume for each dance.
Company Rules: We have a high standard for our Dance Company. Inside Out Dance Company is run differently than regular classes; we expect a higher commitment from dancers who are in the Dance Company. The following rules will help us to achieve these higher standards:
ABSENCES: You are only allowed 2 absences from September-January for each company dance. You are only allowed 2 absences from February-mid June for each company dance. You will be removed from that company piece if you exceed absences. This includes all absences (it does not matter if it is “excused” or not). If you are removed from that company piece, you will be replaced by an understudy and will no longer attend rehearsals for that piece or pay for any rehearsals of that piece after you have been removed. The original Company fee is non refundable. This attendance rule also applies to understudies.
If you are sick and can attend the class to watch, this will not be an absence, however if this happens excessively the instructor may choose to use an understudy in place of you for an upcoming performance.
INJURIES: You cannot perform in a Company Pointe dance if you are injured and cannot wear your Pointe shoes. You cannot perform in a Company Tap dance if you cannot wear your Tap shoes. You cannot perform if you are injured and have not participated in technique class for 2 weeks. If you are recovering from an injury you need to participate in technique class for 2 weeks before you can perform again. If you are injured you will be replaced by an understudy for any shows that occur while you are injured. Once recovered from your injury (and have been able to participate in technique class for two weeks) you will be able to perform your part again in the upcoming performance.
THE REHEARSAL DIRECTLY BEFORE A SHOW IS MANDATORY: However, if you have to miss a rehearsal before a show, there is a possibility of still performing. You must inform your instructor personally and it will be up to the instructor to decide if you may perform or if an understudy will be used. Decision will be based on previous attendance and knowledge of the choreography as well as how your absence will affect the dance. All decisions are final, and there will be no negotiation once the decision is made.
SCHEDULE OF PERFORMANCES: Many of our performances cannot be confirmed until January. Please try and be flexible with your planning of family events/vacations, waiting to plan these until after our schedule is confirmed in January is recommended. We will not have any performances over Northshore School Districts Spring Break, or Mid-Winter Break.
