This will be our 1st yr doing this comp and I am curious if others have done it before and what they thought? We are going to Brantford which should be interesting never been there either BUT I like that it will be at a Performing Arts Theatre

I have never been, but also have never heard anything bad about it.
Sorry, maybe someone else can be more helpful.

We are doing this comp too but in Guelph. I've never been but friends at another studio always do it and say it's great fun and well run. Hope this helps!!

Haven't done that competition but we've been to the venue and if I'm not confusing it with another place, it was a beautiful older theatre with lots of good seating.

Hi, we also did Terpsichore last year, in Ottawa, and the nationals in Niagara Falls, N.Y. It was our first year of competition, and overall we enjoyed Terpsichore, very family-oriented. We are not doing T this year though.

Terpsichore is the muse of dance. She has an extremely difficult variation in Balanchine's 'Apollo.'
