ADULT COMPETITION DANCE TEAM (19+)
Did you know dance competitions offer categories for adults to compete and perform? At Lumenis School of Dance we are now offering the opportunity to display your abilities on stage to win awards!
We want you to take your dance journey into your own hands and become one of our “Illuminated Divas.”
From competitions, conventions, and shows to our rehearsals and classes we appreciate you and want to know how valued you are for pursuing your passion.
No auditions required!
Solos, duets, trios, or group routines! It’s all your choice what you commit to with guidance and teachings of our amazing staff.
We require you to take a class that is equal to the genre that you are performing along with 2 Sunday rehearsals a month. (If these do not work out we can chat about moving them)!
We will have a mandatory meeting Friday, July 3, 2026 at 8:15pm to discuss details as well as contract signing if you wish to commit!
We hope to see you there!

Auditions will be held Saturday, May 30, 2026 from 9-11am at the Lumenis School of Dance based in Hampton, Virginia.
Dancers should be prepared to be scored on technique, performance, and behavior. There will be a panel of judges made up by the studio owner, competition team director, and one additional staff member. Dancers will do a warm up, across the floor, and center combinations. Be prepared for any genre.
Please arrive early to check in as doors will open at 8:30am.
Dress in respectable, plain (no graphics or words) dance appropriate clothes.
Dancers will receive a number to wear at check in.

We are so amazed at how our first annual dance concert turned out yesterday! 🤩
We understand that there were some kinks in the dress rehearsal but everything got smoothed out show day and we couldn’t be more impressed with our dancers and staff! The show turned out beautifully and we are so proud of all the hard work and dedication our students & teachers have put in this year! We are also so thankful to have such incredible families supporting us and hope that you all were able to enjoy seeing your little Lumine on stage as well as the rest of the performers.
Just a friendly reminder that this week is our last week of classes until the next season starts up in July (besides our summer camps in June 🥰)
