At 417 Dance, our competitive team is not only dedicated to fostering mutual support and embracing new challenges, but we also prioritize personal growth and team cohesion.

417 Dance offers a wide range of opportunities and supports to their dancers, and works with each individualized dancer in setting and achieving their desired goals and aspirations. Competing provides a platform to showcase dancers’ skills while pushing them their limits. All dancers at 417 Dance will be required to compete in a minimum of 4 competitions within the state of Missouri. There will be optional opportunities to travel to locations outside the state of MO. This will be for the dancers who want a wider range of experiences and competitive levels. 417 Dance competed in Dallas, TX and attended a convention and competed in Tulsa, OK during the 24-25 season. 417 Dance is open minded and listens to their parents and dancers’ wants and desires. We are looking forward to seeing what all opportunities lie ahead for the 25-26 season.

Moreover, our dedication extends beyond the competitive stage. At 417 Dance, every dancer will have the opportunity to perform at local events and two recitals, Christmas and Spring, spreading the joy of dance throughout our community. Additionally, by engaging in community fundraising activities, we not only support our team financially but also strengthen our ties with the community that supports us.

Overall, 417 Dance is committed to providing a supportive and enriching environment where ALL dancers at every age and level can thrive, grow, and make meaningful connections both on and off the dance floor.
