We've had a lot of interest from our dancers
to start an All-Star Pom program at Gotta Dance.
This will be another avenue in dance to excel.
It will work hand-in-hand with their studio classes,
yet sharpen their skills with a different edge.
What is Pom? Using jazz skills,
it will incorporate poms and precise arm visuals

Fall classes will be held on Wednesday evenings.
In hopes to form a competition team in the future,
pom will perform in the recital this year.
