Dance at Colgate?

<p>I was recently accepted into Colgate and one of factors in my decision will be what kind of dance opportunities there are at the school. I don't want to major in dance or anything, but I have been dancing 6 days a week at a fairly advanced level and I can't ever imagine not dancing anymore. I know there is a ballet club at Colgate, but does anyone know anything about it or anything about performance opportunities? Thanks :)</p>

<p>Same here! =)</p>

<p>Well, hopefully someone’s going to reply!</p>

<p>There is always the jug downtown!</p>

<p>Colgate has a couple different dance groups at Colgate, most but not all styles are represented. What kind are you looking for?</p>

<p>Hip-hop, salsa, tango, belly dancing, bollywood – to name a few =P</p>

<p>Everything except jazz/ballet which I know they do have.</p>

<p>I’m way into ballet :)</p>

<p>@dunkswfur: I think they are not exactly asking about the jug style of dancing. lol</p>

<p>But yes, Colgate does have a lot of dance opportunities. We have dance clubs that specialize in the forms of dance you mentioned, maybe not bollywood though. </p>

<p>There is a DanceFest every semester, and various groups perform. In fact, one of my friends did a solo during the event on some bollywood tracks.</p>

<p>Thank you! =)</p>

<p>No problem! and good luck!</p>

<p>They are asking about jug dancing, they just don’t know it yet. Remember this once you get there: when you just need to dance, the jug is there for you and open five nights a week.</p>

<p>But in all seriousness Colgate does have a lot of organized dance groups. I suggest doing a youtube search for “Colgate dancefest.” A lot of videos from performances are up there and it will give you a good idea of the different groups and their styles.</p>

<p>Go on YouTube and type in “Colgate dancefest.” You will be amazed how fantastic the dancers are! There should be one within a month so I highly, highly suggest that you visit Colgate when they have the Dancefest (it’s usually very, very packed so I’d go early if you want to sit down!). It’ll give you a great preview of which dance groups you’d like to join should you decide on Colgate! :)</p>
