Grow by Performing

Performance Opportunities

Momentum takes pride in giving our dancers many opportunities to perform throughout every season — at community events around Norwood Park and Chicago, from parades and festivals to Six Flags and our recitals.

On stage and in the community

Performance is a vital part of every dancer's journey at Momentum — and our dancers take the stage more than once a year. Every season features two recitals plus our annual Nutcracker production, while team dancers also compete and perform throughout the season and in the community — experiences that build confidence, stage presence and a real sense of accomplishment.

  • Perform all season long
  • Two recitals per season
  • Annual Nutcracker production
Competition Team

Momentum Dance Company (MDC)

Our audition-based competition team gives dancers the chance to train intensively, perform throughout the season, and compete at regional events.

Make friends. Make memories. Make it count.

If your dancer loves being on stage, thrives in a team environment and is ready to grow in skill and confidence, Momentum Dance Company is the next step. MDC dancers get high-energy classes that push them to grow, opportunities to perform and compete in a supportive environment, a positive team culture, and a structured path from their current level to their full potential — with safe, age-appropriate training from invested instructors. Dancers are placed by age and level, coached by instructors who are truly invested in them, and surrounded by a positive team culture where friendships and confidence grow right alongside the skills.

Programs for Every Dancer

Acro & Tumbling

One of the things Momentum is known for. Acro blends dance with acrobatic skills — balances, limber work and tumbling — while tumbling builds strength, flexibility and skills like cartwheels, walkovers and handsprings. Taught safely and progressed properly for every level.

Dance like your favorite team idols! In our Jr. Hawkette class, dancers learn a high-energy routine to perform at summer festivals while building skills in jazz, poms and kick — a joyful mix of performance, technique and team spirit.
