During season we practice four day's a week, plus our games. During off season we will practice 2 times a week with weekly workouts added in throughout the week, and also hold open gym time to work on specific skills that are a necessity to being an athlete on the Spirit Program. We attend a private college camp during the summer that help us prepare for the approaching season.
Community Service is another big part of who we are. Therefore, we do a lot of appearances out in the community at non-college functions.

This isn't an average place to learn dance- we've created a family. The goal at BAHS is and always will be to have fun while learning to dance & to harness self-confidence. We aren't striving to create & pump out "perfect dancers." The message I constantly tell the kids is to "embrace their inner weird", and not to be afraid to be themselves, whatever that might be!
