Villanova Dance Groups

The Dance Company

The Villanova Dance Co. is a group of extremely dedicated dancers who perform at various events in and around the Villanova community.  Each semester, they perform their own creative choreography in a showcase for friends and family in addition to performing at university events such as Special Olympics, St. Thomas of Villanova Day, Parent's Weekend, and Balloon day.  As a team, the dance company supports the Villanova men and women's basketball programs by dancing for the 'Nova fans at designated games throughout the season. 

In addition to these scheduled performances, the company has begun to compete nationally.  In January 2002 and 2003, a select group from the company has participated in the Universal Dance Association (UDA) Collegiate Cheer and Dance Championship.  Both seasons proved to be huge accomplishments for this group! 

Every year, the team begins to prepare by attending UDA's camp at Rutgers in August prior to returning to school for their own Villanova Dance Camp.  If you would like information about attending Villanova's Music Camp held for incoming freshmen interested in dancing at Villanova or interested in joining the Dance Company please contact us!
