For dancers who wish to engage in deep dance training and perform often, Liminal's Competition Ensembles blend dedicated technical training with creative risk-taking.
Each Ensemble dancer commits to a comprehensive schedule (September through May) that includes core lab and class programming, rehearsals and participation in competitions, conventions, and other community performances.
Liminal Dance Labs offers three competitive Ensemble pathways:
Ensemble A — Performing Arts: Available age groups: 5-19. Performing Arts includes contemporary ballet, various styles of jazz, modern, and contemporary with additional classes in conditioning and acrodance, designed for competitive performance readiness.
Ensemble B — Industrial Arts: Available age groups: 9-19. Industrial Arts is focused on hip hop, tap, funk, choreography, dance for camera, and other classes designed for an industry edge in commercial dance.

Athletic Arts is focused on technical training in jazz fusion as preparation for middle or high school drill teams, includes hip hop, POMS, and a selection of other labs that increase capacity of advanced skills for dance team performance and competition.

Placement in Liminal's Dance Ensemble is determined by studio evaluation and/or during annual auditions. Minimum lab requirement exceptions can made on an individual basis by Artistic Director.
