[1] Introduction
This is SIU's Dancer Manual! In this guide, you will find rules, information and tips! Before asking an HR a question, please read this guide as it will most likely answer any questions you may have. If you have any questions, complaints or comments, simply message a CO+!
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
[2] Rules & Regulations
These are the Rules and Regulations that if you follow, will keep you out of trouble. If you chose not to follow them, there will be consequences.
Rules & Regulations:
~Respect all HR's and dancers around you
~Do whatever your coach says
~Be respectful on the group wall
~No advertising (Ex: Join this group, it’s awesome! Link:) on the wall, or anywhere
~Be supportive of your fellow peers
~Be active! Come to our amazing events and classes!
~Lastly, try your best and have fun
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
[3] Class Information
Classes will be scheduled on the shout by coaches! Pay close attention to the shout which will notify you of all classes and upcoming events! At a class, you will learn to perfect certain dance moves and the coach will teach you routines to your favorite songs.
For Competition Team, you are recommended to go to as many classes as possible as it will help you become a better dancer! Competition Team practices will be scheduled on the shout.. At Competition Team practice, you will learn routines for competitions against other groups and will be given a solo, duet, trio or group routine. Only Competition Team members are allowed at the SIU’s studio during these practices.
*IMPORTANT: All times on the shout are written in EASTERN STANDARD TIME [EST]*
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
[4] Ranking Up
At the end of a class, the coach will present a handful of dancers with an effort point! To receive one of these points, you must embody a kind, helpful, skillful and patient dancer! Please remember that not everyone will receive an effort point. Don’t be sad though, just try harder next time and be supportive for the ones who did receive an effort point!
*IMPORTANT: Read the “Ranking Guide” to learn how many effort points you need to be promoted!*
You can get more than one effort point in one day, for example if you go to two classes in one day and get an effort point from both of them. BUT, you may not get more than ONE effort point in ONE class.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
[5] Applications
One of the questions that we get a lot is "CAN I BE AN HR PRETTY PLEASE!" Well, we’re not just going to hire you, you need to pass the application first. Applications will be open about once every one or two months, during which you will have to answer questions and provide us a few reasons why you would like to be a CIT.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
[6] FUN!
Game Nights:
SIU often has game nights where we play a bunch of fun minigames and contests. You can even earn robux during game nights!
Sleepovers:
Sleepovers are similar to game nights, but instead they are hosted at a later time and they always have a certain theme. During the night, we all get to share stories and sing songs. Sleepovers often lead to the tightest bonds of friendship!
Contests:
We have robux contests and sometimes rank up contests. Decal contests, best dressed contests and logo contests are only a few of the many contests at SIU!
Competitions:
SIU schedules many competitions with other dance groups! Competition Team members+ get to participate in these competitions. The HRs will give out solos, duets, trios and group routines to learn prior to the competition during Competition Team+ practice.
Parties:
SIU will often host parties for HRs’ birthdays, holidays, or even to reminisce memories.
