What's the time commitment of dancing at Indiana Tech?

On average, we have two 2-hour practices per week and 1-2 games per week. If you're on the Nationals (competition) squad, you'll have an additional weekly practice, plus we do extensive training and technique during practice to improve our performance skills. The Diamonds Dance Team also participates in Study Table at least once a week for up to 2 hours, to ensure that academic requirements are being met and maintained.
