WELCOME TO THE PLACE WHERE WORSHIP IS OUR SINGULAR FOCUS!
You are here because you are expressing interest in the Unquenchable Worshippers Dance & Flag Team (UWDT). Our singular purpose is to “shift atmospheres for the sake of true worship”. We worship an audience of ONE; the true and living God who is the object of our affection. He alone deserves all of who we are and He deserves worship not only for what He has done in our lives but for who He is. Our desire is for God to use our temples as creative expressions of His glory that will stir up atmospheres for miracles, signs, & wonders to go forth in the lives of the people who experience us. We want to usher them into the intimate sanctuaries of our Holy God. We are merely carriers and vehicles to be used for His glory; therefore, we shall respect, honor, and take great care of our temples so that we may prove what is the will of God concerning worshipping Him.
No persons are automatically accepted into this team. You must complete the interest application and there is always a form of audition required for kids and adults. Auditions are held on certain dates on-site at Transformed City Church. Please reference the next audition date below. If you already have a pre-prepared choreographed song, please be ready to briefly show us what you can do. We are not merely looking for skill as much as we are looking for heart and passion to worship God.
Once you pass the audition, you will be tasked to complete the Online Waiver Form which can be completed below via the button. Our online waiver is an official waiver and release of liability acknowledgement that you assume all risk as a participant of this dance team. Failure to submit this form will prohibit you from remaining on the team.
Next Audition Date: Saturday, October 12th @ 9:00AM
Audition dates are set when we are finished revealing a production during service which means new members can join in at the beginning of a new production. If you are auditioning, please have a 2 minute prepared dance piece or be ready to dance for 2 minutes to a song we have prepared for you.
DANCE REHEARSAL RULES
Dance rehearsal is every 2nd Saturday from 9AM to Noon. Dancers must arrive on time. Doors will lock at 9:15 AM and will not let anyone else in the building.
Dancers must be in athleisure or flexible clothing and wear their dance shoes or bare feet. No socks allowed.
To enhance the progression of each production, dancers can only miss up to two (2) practices within a production period.
No cell phones are allowed to be viewed during practice. Exceptions include instructors who use it to view a past rehearsal.
To reduce distractions, no parents are allowed in the main sanctuary during rehearsal and can sit in the Teens Area/Cafe Lobby Area to wait unless they are a Dance Support Parent. Parents also have the option to leave the building and pick up their kids at Noon. For safety purposes, the door remains locked from 9:15 AM to Noon and instructors do not leave until all children and adults have left the building.
No food or drinks (except water or gatorade) are allowed during practice.
All dancers must have their entire production outfit purchased by “dress rehearsal” which is normally the last rehearsal before Production Sunday.
All dancers must read the required book and be ready to engage in discussion for each practice; otherwise, they are not allowed in practice.
APPAREL REQUIREMENTS & VENDORS
To be on the Unquenchable Worshippers Dance & Flag Team (UWDT), each recipient must acquire basic dance apparel we like to call Dance Foundations. Below we have outlined the garments required which serves as the foundation for many of our production attires. We have also included the vendors we use to purchase dance apparel.
Please note that to be on this team, there is a continual cost of getting dance merch to enhance our worship productions. We are aware that our dancer families may be in various financial situations; therefore, we will try our best to seek out inexpensive merch and provide production apparel costs ahead of time as well as any support we can.
The dance foundations we have set below do not need to be purchased all at one time; but it is pertinent that these items are a part of your closet as quickly as possible. If you absolutely cannot afford some of these items, please discuss your situation with Pastor Queen.
