Join Eloria in 2027
Steps to Joining
All participants will learn a dance phrase and an ensemble flag phrase. Those interested in auditioning on weapon will also learn a rifle phrase and a saber phrase, pending interest. Eloria will not provide weapons for auditions, so anyone interested in auditioning on rifle or saber must bring their own equipment. Participants will be evaluated on their ability to handle the choreography, as well as their technique, attitude, approach, adaptability, and overall presence throughout the day.
To participate, all auditionees must complete the required liability forms, submit all necessary paperwork, and pay the $30 audition fee prior to auditions. Auditionees should wear form-fitting clothing, keep hair pulled away from the face, and wear appropriate shoes and/or knee pads.
If you are unable to attend the in-person audition, you may still audition virtually and be invited back for callbacks to solidify your spot. To arrange a virtual audition, please email the directors at eloriaindependent@gmail.com.
Please know that being unable to attend the in-person audition does not automatically remove you from consideration. We encourage you to take a chance and begin the process.
