ATTIRE
Stunt and Dancers:
Female (all):
♦ Sports bra and fitted shorts of your choice. Apparel should be flattering to your body type with emphasis on an appearance that will highlight your try-out.
♦ White tennis shoes
♦ Need to arrive with full hair & makeup

Stunt Males:
♦ Plain white T-shirt (no tank tops or cut off T-shirts)
♦ Dark colored shorts
♦ White tennis shoes
♦ Need to be well groomed – No ponytails, beards or mustaches

PREPARATION
♦ Submit a completed application with two 5x7(required) professional picture (recommended) headshot and full body shot in bikini or sports bra and shorts.

I’d recommend the full body shot to be in a “cheerleader” pose. There’s a special body angle with the hips and shoulders – use that, along with a big smile and perfect hair and lighting to create that 5x7.

Add those pom-poms – a cheap prop available at many dollar stores – and you’ll have a competitive edge.

Good luck!
