Reminder Details

Carnegie Classic Video Review:

In preparation for nationals, we’re getting together to eat pizza and watch
the videos from Carnegie Classic! This is a good chance to celebrate our
accomplishments, but also reflect on what our goals are for improvement.
Whether or not you competed at CC or are planning to compete at nationals,
these video reviews are a great way to discuss with your fellow dancers
what looks good on a dance floor. You are encouraged to invite constructive
feedback from your teammates, and you should definitely give out some
compliments to your favorite dancers!

We’ll be at the Dowd conference room located on the second floor of the
CUC. Video review will run from 2pm - 4pm on Saturday, 3/16.

Please RSVP here so we know how much pizza to get + what videos to show!
