THE PREP | ages 12+ | March 7th & 8th, 2026
D1U: THE PREP — 2-Day Workshop
Where aspiring collegiate dancers become collegiate-ready.
D1U: The Prep is a high-intensity, athlete-focused 2-day workshop built to prepare dancers for the reality of college dance team training, expectations, and recruitment. Designed and led directly by NCAA dance programs, this event goes beyond traditional conventions—giving athletes the actual tools, standards, technique, and mindset needed to thrive at the next level.
Across two days, dancers rotate through technique labs, hip hop sessions, pom precision, conditioning, across-the-floor training, game-day style, and mock audition choreography, with dedicated time for Q&A panels, recruitment conversations, and coach feedback.
🔥 What Makes The Prep Different:
College coaches in the room teaching you exactly how they train their teams
Small class sizes for personalized feedback & athlete development
Recruitment insight & what colleges actually look for
Skill-specific breakdowns (turns, jumps, technique, textures & power)
Realistic mock audition environment
Leadership, confidence & mindset training
A supportive atmosphere built for dancers with big goals
Whether you're aiming for D1, D1A, D2, or D3, this 2-day experience is your chance to train like a college athlete—before you ever step on campus.
