Q: How long is the parade route?
-
A: 1.5 to 3hr’s (this will depend where we are in the line up)
Q: Am I required to be in the Festival Performance, I only want to do the Parade?
-
A: Neither are required. But if attending in person for the main event the Parade portion is required by all participants. You are welcome to do only the parade and not the festival if you choose.
Q: Restrooms along parade route?
-
A: Yes, there will be porta potties located at group line up and different areas. We will also find the locations that will allow people to come into to use their facility along parade route. There are restrooms along the parade route, as well as the Festival. (For example. you can hop off the float, run to the potty and possibly have to catch back up to the float if needing to go while during the actual parade).
Q: Can I enjoy rehearsals but not attend the parade day?
-
A: Yes! Please register and enjoy the process with us either online &/or in the studio. If you cannot attend parade day that is ok! We are happy to have you. Please specify in your registration.
Q: Can I wear my own costume?
-
A: NO, unless approved by Janelle. During Week 1 of rehearsals Janelle will share a PDF file of costume options. Everyone will choose from the selected costumes that the costume committee decides on. There will be more than one option for you to choose from. I do my best to keep these under $40. and of course you will be able to keep it!
Q: I would like to do a mix of Online Classes, Recordings and In-Studio (is that ok?)
-
A: Absolutely! This program will always be offered via zoom for every session + I will make recordings if you miss/ have a conflict! We will also have specific in-studio sessions. Make sure to stay up to date with DanceParade Emails! Attend and practice as much as possible. All I ask is that you stay committed to being a team player and learn the given material.
