Costume & Competition Fees: These fees will be invoiced in the later part of the dance season and will vary per group. If you would like a rough idea of how much this would cost for your child, please contact us. Some groups performing the Poltava region may be required to purchase a Poltava shirt (boys & girls) and red beads (girls). After the dance season has begun, the costume coordinators will be in touch with your group to let you know which costume pieces you will need to purchase, and which ones you will rent from the club.

Fundraising: Selling-type fundraising in Troyanda is not required however Troyanda will hold Malanka in January to raise funds and all parents are required to volunteer to make the event a success. Other fundraisers may be held as needed.

  Attendance Policy: Any dancer with 5 or more absences throughout the 30+ weeks of classes will be subject to evaluation by the instructor in order to determine if they will be eligible to participate in competition.

Dance Attire and Footwear: For girls we request bodysuits and leotards or fitted athletic/dance wear; hair must be in a ballet bun; black jazz slippers (Malenkiy/Kazka) or black jazz shoes (Kazka and up); shoes for girls in Tryzub and up will be decided in class as shoes are decided on by dance regions. For boys we request fitted t-shirts and sweat/jazz pants or shorts; black jazz shoes for all groups and when dancing in Tryzub boys will require red boots. No baggy clothing please.

Parent Viewing: It is the club policy that parents and siblings do not remain in the hall during dance classes, as it is distracting for the dancers if the public is in the instruction area. Two different parent viewing dates will be held throughout the year so you are able to observe your child’s class.

Role of the Parent: Parents are encouraged to serve board positions or as members at large and to assist with ongoing club activities, decisions and fundraisers. Please remember, Troyanda is a parent-run organization. Without parents to help, there is no club. Anyone interested in helping but who might be unsure about taking a Board position is encouraged to volunteer as a contact parent for their group. It is a great position to learn the ins and outs of how our club works.
