2024 DETROIT LIONS CHEERLEADERS MASTER CLASS SERIES

Master Classes provide audition candidates an opportunity to train in a variety of styles of dance, and the classes are designed for the dancer to focus on refreshing and mastering basic skills for success as a professional dancer. These are dance classes only and audition choreography is not taught during these sessions.

Master Classes are offered in a variety of styles including jazz, pom, leaps & turns, sidelines, and hip hop and are taught at an intermediate-advanced level. These classes are instructed by industry professionals, Detroit Lions Cheerleaders alumni and staff, and current DLC captains. All classes will include a warm-up, applicable technique, and dance combinations taught at a rapid speed to mimic the fast-paced nature of DLC rehearsals.
