Just Dance! Company

A Nationally Awarded Competitive Dance Team

Our Company dancers, ages 5–18, represent the highest level of training, performance, and competition at Charleston Dance Center — and among the best in Charleston. Through an audition process, Minis, Petites, Juniors, and Seniors earn their place on this prestigious team.

Company dancers travel throughout the Southeast, attending conventions and competitions designed to challenge and inspire, including nationally recognized events such as The Dance Awards, National Dance Honors, and the NYCDA National Season Finals in New York City.

Note: The Company often dances with the Collective Team, creating a strong and unified community.
