A dance recital for recreational dancers is a public performance where students showcase the dance skills and choreography they've learned throughout the year. It's a way to celebrate their hard work and accomplishments in a supportive environment, featuring family and friends in the audience. 

​

Purpose:

• Recitals provide a platform for dancers to perform in front of an audience, boosting their confidence and allowing them to share what they have been working on throughout the year, as well as share their joy of dancing. 

Audience:

• Typically, recitals are attended by family, friends, and teachers, creating a supportive and celebratory atmosphere. 

Focus:

• Recreational recitals emphasize the fun and enjoyment of dancing, with less focus on technical perfection or competition. 

Variations:

• Recitals include group routines (rec and comp), as well as a final number and graduating senior solos.

Costumes:

• Dancers often wear costumes that complement the style of their performance.
