Ignite Your Flare Dance & Acrobatics

Recreational and competition dance programs

Most dancers take semester classes. Dancers who want more can audition for one of five teams.

Our most popular program

Semester classes

Each semester is about five months focused on the styles you sign up for. At the end, every class performs its own dance, in its own costume, at our recital.

A dancer in ballet and tap, for example, has two costumes and performs in both dances. It’s a great way to see how much your child grows in five months.

Our teams

Every team is by audition and runs a 13-month season.

Teams are a commitment

  • Full season

    Outside rehearsals, extra performances and added costs.

  • Required classes

    Each team has its own. Competition dancers are encouraged to take every style.

  • Weekend events

    Within about four hours of Red Bluff, sometimes starting Thursday or Friday night.

  • Studio ambassadors

    Kind, helpful, prepared and positive.

Wildfire mascot

Team Wildfire

Adaptive inclusive team

Designed to be inclusive and supportive of dancers with disabilities, neurodivergence, learning differences, medical needs, or any circumstance that calls for individualized adaptations. Like Ember, one out-of-town event is required and others are optional.

Blaze mascot

Team Blaze

Full competitive team

Our team with the most commitment. Blaze dancers attend all local and competitive events, perform at least two routines with the option to add a solo or more group routines, and meet a class requirement at Flare. They’re held to a high standard as leaders at the studio and at events.

Spark mascot

Team Spark

Pre-team

The bridge between Ember and Blaze. Spark dancers attend one out-of-town event and compete one dance there, with the option to add more if available. We encourage them to attend more events for convention classes and to cheer on teammates.

Ember mascot

Team Ember

Traveling, non-competitive

A way to dip your toes into competition life. Ember dancers attend one out-of-town event for a weekend of convention classes with master choreographers, cheer on teammates and watch other studios compete, without the pressure of competing themselves.

Glow mascot

Team Glow

Local team

Perfect for dancers who want more stage time without traveling. Glow performs at local events like Spooktacular, the Children’s Christmas Festival and Tough Enough to Wear Pink. Dancers learn what it means to be part of a team, gain stage experience and grow their confidence.
