Membership
At Fantasy Dance Troupe, we are more than just a dance company — we are a creative home for dancers, families, and supporters who believe in the power of movement, culture, and community. As a non-profit organization, we rely on the support of our members to sustain the performances, productions, and resources that bring our mission to life.
Your membership helps make our work possible — from costumes to costume care, and from insurance to outreach.
💡 Why Membership Fees?
While tuition covers classes, our productions and community events come with additional costs that tuition doesn’t cover. Membership fees help us manage these extra expenses — so our dancers can shine on stage and represent our community with pride and professionalism.
We keep fees modest and offer scholarships or volunteer exchange opportunities for those who need financial flexibility.
