Going a different direction on a dance, costume and theme is a risk many teams take. This past year, the University of St. Thomas Dance Team (located in Minnesota, not the island) took a major risk with a one song, Justin Timberlake and Jay-Z "Holy Grail" routine at the 2015 UDA College National Championship and it paid off! We were eager to bring their costume vision to life and match the "JT swag" they were going for.

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!

THEME COSTUMES CONTINUE TO BE A HOT TREND THIS YEAR. And Mound Westonka Dance Team (MN) nailed it.
They creatively brainstormed a new theme based on uniforms from two seasons prior. By creating costumes for only half the team, they were able to go from Newsies to Mary Poppins seamlessly. Coach Molly sent us a sweet note with great photos that we wanted to share.
Here's what coach Molly had to say!
"Our team is so excited about their kick uniforms this year, because they love their theme (Mary Poppins), and the uniforms fit the theme so well.
