One of our longtime loyal customers, the Waupaca Dance Team, designed a jazz costume this past year that was eye-catching and beautiful that came from great inspiration.

This past weekend, synchronized skating teams from all over the globe came to compete at the ISU World Synchronized Skating Championship in Ontario, Canada!  

We were honored to have created costumes for two team representing their country: Miami University representing Team USA 2 and Eislaufclub Burgdorf Cool Dreams representing Team Switzerland.  Here are a couple great shots of both teams in action this weekend!

This past weekend, teams from all over the country traveled to Daytona Beach, Florida for the NDA College National Dance Championships.  We were so excited for all our college teams to unveil their amazing costumes. Here are a few photo highlights from the weekend from NDA!

Don't see your warm-up on someone else. Want to design a style that's completely your own? We can take your logo or team mascot and create a completely custom warm up. Stand out in your personalized team and club apparel by adding logos and lettering to your favorite base style. Our new jackets, leggings, and warm-up pants are the perfect mix of feminine & sporty, and durable & long-lasting.

Our friends at Little Chute High School in Wisconsin had a lot to celebrate this past season, and we couldn't be happier for them! Not only were they back to back State Champions in D2 kick, but their coaches, Beth DeBruin and Maggie Haen, were selected as the Wisconsin State Dance Coaches of the year! They were nominated by fellow coaches, team members, parents, administrators, athletic directors, and Booster Club members. Congratulations from everyone at The Line Up!

Our latest embellishment technology at the Line Up: Spangles! Spangles are threadless sequins that are applied to a garment with heat-set glue, adding sparkle without the expense of rhinestones! Spangles are one of our favorite ways to add branding to your team apparel, camp wear or practice outfits. We have added many new designs to our 2015-2016 Team Apparel & Warm-Ups Catalog with spangle options included in the price!

One of many highlights from EPIC Reach the Beach that we attended and participated in was seeing our friends from South Jersey Storm in their custom costume they designed.

The Line Up is ecstatic to be working with INNOVATE Dance, founded by acclaimed choreographer Karl Mundt. Karl and his team have one mission, to create an experience that inspires dancers.  We are excited to be making a new line of Innovate practice apparel that will be worn by the INNOVATE staff and available to purchase at their summer camps.

Over the years, the tryout process has become increasingly competitive and can feel very intimidating, even to the vet! The more confident you are, the better your chances for making the team.

We've compiled a list of helpful tips and tricks for tryouts, from choosing your audition outfit to paying attention to the little details- we want you to help you be 101% confident!

For over 25 years, The Line Up has been making performance apparel for professional, semi pro and collegiate teams across the country. We understand the team selection process and know what coaches are looking for. Once you make the team, there is a good chance you will be wearing a uniform made by us!

The West Fargo Dance Team designed two outstanding costumes for the 2014-2015 season. Competing in both high kick and jazz, the West Fargo Dance Team costumes were a definite crowd (and judge!) pleaser.
