RYZING STARS

The Ryzing Stars Program is the perfect first step into the convention world for dancers ages 5 and up. Specifically designed for our youngest attendees, the program features two half-days of workshop classes and a dedicated Ryzing Stars division in the competition.

Led by our amazing faculty, the program offers a supportive and age-appropriate experience for dancers who are excited to join a convention weekend but may not be quite ready for the Mini room.

• Two half-days of workshops on Saturday and Sunday
• Classes in a variety of fun and age-appropriate styles
• Personalized guidance from our faculty throughout the weekend
• A custom Ryzing Stars T-shirt
• Performance on the RYZE main stage

• Each registered Ryzing Stars dancer will receive one complimentary Ryzing Stars Observer wristband for their studio to give to the appropriate parent or guardian.
• This wristband allows access to the Ryzing Stars workshop room only — not to Mini, Junior, Teen, Senior, or Teacher rooms. No exceptions.
• If additional Ryzing Stars Observer bands are needed, they can be purchased on-site.
• If you plan to purchase an additional Ryzing Stars Observer Band on-site, please be prepared to provide the dancer’s full name, studio affiliation and date of birth for security verification.

Ryzing Stars dancers may participate in the competition only if they are registered for both days of the Ryzing Stars workshop.

Ryzing Stars dancers are not eligible for audition or class scholarships, but they can be considered for Artist to Watch scholarships.
