Jewels consists of leveled dancers who train an average of 3-5 hours per week (tap, jazz, ballet) demonstrating skilled technique, advanced movement styles and an unparalleled performance quality.

Dynasty Elite represents MYM’s premier, most advanced level of our performing companies. Dynasty Elite consists of leveled dancers who train an average of 8 hours per week - demonstrating skilled technique, advanced movement styles and an unparalleled performance quality. These dancers choose Dynasty Elite as a priority over all other extra activities and understand that, more than likely, they will not be able to commit to other activities throughout the year. These dancers attend competitions and conventions on the regional and national level and are expected to be well-rounded, poised and extremely focused dancers while adhering to the intense demands (monetary and time) expected of Elites. AGAIN - Please note that the commitment to Dynasty Elite is a big one...not leaving extra time for other serious, outside activities. This is important to understand before pursuing a spot on any Dynasty Elite team. MYM offers performance/competition groups other than Elite, for dancers who would like to be a part of the competition circuit while pursuing other opportunities and activities or who are not able to fulfill the monetary commitment of Dynasty Elite.
