AMA Academy of Performing Arts’ performance teams are a great opportunity for those dancers looking to perform more often and really excel in their dance technique and performance quality. Our three teams cover many different skill and experience levels, for ages 5 & up. We perform at many events in community, including at the Des Plaines Public Library and Maine West High School’s West Fest, as well as larger venues, such as Six Flags-Great America and the Allstate Arena!
AMA Mini Force (~ 5 & 6 Years Old)
Our youngest performance team members perform at all community performances and in our annual June recital, and participate in our all-level performance company production number!
AMA Future Force (~ 7 & 8 Years Old)
This mid-level company is a stepping stone up to our senior performance team. The Future Force also participates in all community performances and in the June recital.
AMA Dance Force Performance Company & Competition Team (~ ages 9+)
The AMA Dance Force is our senior performance team. The AMA Dance Force welcomes students of all experience and skill levels who have the motivation to improve and a love of dance. These qualities make the dancer and the team successful!
For those who are interested, we also offer the opportunity to be part of our competition team. We pride ourselves on creating and maintaining an atmosphere of encouragement and sportsmanship. Our only real competition is ourselves, constantly striving for our own personal best and to be better than we were the day before.
