Competitive Cheer (Standish Only)
Stage Right offers a unique opportunity for children interested in Competitive Cheer. Our squads participate in two competitions in Michigan during the school year as well as perform in our Competitive Showcase and Grand Performance. This is an affordable opportunity and does not require the commitment that most Competitive Cheer Programs do.
​
Students are encouraged to also take a tumbling class to compliment their cheer skills and stunts. Basic tumbling is worked on during cheer practices. Students will learn lifts, tricks and stunts. All of our programs only utilize family friendly music and uniforms.
Competitive Dance Team (Standish Only)
Stage Right offers an exciting competitive experience to our students who show a great deal of passion and enthusiasm for dance.
​
We perform at three Michigan Based Competitions throughout the Dance Year. We have participated in Dance Force Xpress, StarQuest, I Love Dance and Creation.
​
The team has significantly grown over the past five years and have won many awards and received High Gold and Platinum Scores.
​
This opportunity is by invite only. If you are interested, please discuss your goals with Miss Shayna so that she can help you achieve the appropriate level to participate.
