Nationals Teams:

  • All nationals teams require an INTERVIEW to be accepted.
  • If you have passed the interview for your team in a prior year, you do not have to re-interview unless specifically requested.
  • Most classes are semester-by-semester. Nationals Team classes are year-round (starting in fall, ending in spring). If you have already paid for the full 2026–2027 season, do not make an additional payment. Students joining for spring must receive approval and confirm their tuition with our team.
  • If you intend to join a Nationals Team, you are agreeing to treat that commitment as a primary extracurricular, spending anywhere from one to three weekends per month competing on weekends. Your goal is to work hard, practice with and without your coaches, and earn state/national recognition.
  • National Circuit Level Classes requiring interview and a goal of winning at the State and National Level – Classes are longer and work load is significant (All competition team classes requires one year sign up)

Discount:

  • EARLY BIRD: If payment and registration are completed before December 15, 2026, you get a 10% early bird discount. This is a 3% discount for Nationals Team classes.
  • MULTI-CLASS: If you register for two classes, you get a 10% discount on the second class. The discount applies to the less expensive of the two classes.
