Open<br />
Teams<br />
o<br />
pen teams<br />
Open Teams comprise of dancers from a specific<br />
region, country or worldwide! Open Teams are the most<br />
incredible opportunity to meet other dancers of the same<br />
age range, same interests and same love of dance as you.<br />
Everyone is in the same situation - excited to experience the<br />
most incredible dance tour AND make new friends for life!<br />
Dancers<br />
Each Open Team consists of 20 - 30 dancers plus parent<br />
chaperones and family members. Dancers in an Open Team<br />
must be at least 15 years or older at the time of travel.<br />
Exceptions are made for dancers 12 - 14 years if their parent<br />
comes as a chaperone. Chaperones and family members of<br />
dancers all ages are also invited on the tour.<br />
Team Leaders<br />
Each Open Team has it’s own Team Leader who is a fabulous<br />
dancer/choreographer who choreographs the team’s<br />
performance piece and leads the team on tour. Performance<br />
choreography will be sent to all dancers via Youtube months<br />
prior to departure. Dancers are required to learn the<br />
choreography off by heart prior to the tour. On tour the Team<br />
Leader will rehearse formations and polish the choreography<br />
ready for performance.<br />
Chaperones Each team requires parent chaperones<br />
to accompany the team on tour. We require a minimum<br />
chaperone ratio of<br />
1: 3 / 5 dancers. (Minimum 5 chaperones per 20 dancers)<br />
Chaperones are responsible for:<br />
• The well being of all dancers in the tour team<br />
• Their specific rooming group of 3 <strong>–</strong> 5 dancers<br />
• Making sure dancers are up in the morning and get to<br />
bed at a decent hour!<br />
• Making sure dancers have packed their lunch<br />
• Making plans for dinner<br />
• Supervising dancers during tour activities and free time<br />
(if under 18)<br />
• Enjoying their own free time (or coming to watch) during<br />
dance classes, seminars and performances.<br />
Family Members Additional family members are more<br />
then welcome to apply to join the team on tour and make<br />
it a family vacation.<br />
Family Members<br />
• Must travel on a WCDT family member tour package<br />
(same cost as chaperones)<br />
• Enjoy all accommodations, transport, transfers, activities<br />
etc but do not partake in any dance classes etc<br />
• Must be 5 years or older<br />
• If over 5 but under 12 years must have an additional<br />
parent/caregiver (other than the chaperone) to<br />
accompany them on tour.<br />
