THE PULSE PERFORMANCE SHOWCASE
We challenge you to leave behind your competition criteria and explore the stage with no boundaries. We invite each group of 10 or more dancers present up to one piece to perform. (IF space allows we will open the show for groups to perfrom another routine. In addition the showcase will open to individuals to form a group of at least 5 dancers. The PULSE asks if you bring more than one number that you have two entirely different groups of dancers performing. No one dancer should be in two routines.)
• The showcase is open to the public. There is no fee to come support your fellow dancers!
• The show runs approximately two hours.
• We know you want the faculty's thoughts on your routine! The faculty will take notes during the performance. ALL routines and ALL choreographers/teachers will receive the faculty's written notes in an email within one week of the performance.

REQUIREMENTS
• You must be registered as a group to perform in the PULSE Performance Showcase. Studios with less than 10 dancers we will open the showcase to you one month prior to the event, depending on availability.
