Platinum Schedule

≈ Comments Off on Platinum Schedule

Hello Parents,
We have received the tentative schedule for the upcoming Platinum Competition. We will be competing on Friday, March 12th. Our studio performance time block will start at 2:00 PM. This means students will need to arrive dressed and ready for their first routine by 1:15 PM. Platinum will be conducting temperature checks for all students, staff and spectators upon entry, which means there is no time to get ready after you arrive. 
We understand this means parents may have to miss work and students will have to miss part of their school day. We wanted to let you know now, so you can make the necessary arrangements.
They will be limiting spectators for this event. When we have detailed information on how many per family, we will let you know. They will be offering a free livestream on their homepage.
We’ve also attached the performance order. We don’t have their official routine numbers, but wanted to give you the line-up.

Here is the tutorial for the Competition hair. This is how students will wear their hair for all competitive routines unless noted otherwise. 


Reminder, we will not braid all the way down. The braids will lead into a low ponytail, which you will then put into a low bun. You will also need to use product such as gel & bobby pins to secure the bun and a hair net to avoid fly-aways. 
Please make sure to practice this hairstyle before the showcase or recruit someone to help your child with this.
