FAQ

  • Rhythm X will be based out of Franklin, Indiana for the upcoming season.

    Individuals from any geographic location are encouraged to apply, as every season we have members and staff coming from across the country.

  • Join our Facebook group here to ask more questions, see who else is interested in auditioning, potentially find car pools, etc.: https://www.facebook.com/share/XiDjntGrpsDuRCGz/

  • As per WGI stipulations, performers shall not be over 22 years of age as of 12:01 AM on April 1, 2025. There is not a bottom age limit to audition or attend the clinics, though most performers who end up making the ensemble tend to be age 18+.

  • We occasionally have performers who live far away submit a video audition, which is approved on a case by case basis. If you’re a contender for a spot, you will need to attend the second audition in person. Email contact@rhythmx.org if you are interested in this option.

  • Due to the nature of modern Visual Ensemble, auditionees will be evaluated on site in regards to quality of Dance, Movement, Flexibility, and Adaptability.

    Auditionees should come prepared to showcase Technique in the Art of Modern Dance, including but not limited to; Jazz Dance, Lyrical Dance, Hip Hop Dance, Acrobatic Dance, and Contemporary Dance.

    The Expectation will be that all auditionees be led through a Stretch and Flexibility block. A Dance Basics and Dance Technique block, including Across-The-Floors. And at least two Dance Routines taught live, and evaluated on Comprehension, Technique, Performance Quality, and Adaptability.

  • Yes! We encourage individuals from across the country (or globe!) to participate in our auditions. While Rhythm X mainly practices and performs in the Midwest, every year we have members from around the country. In the past, we’ve also had members from Belgium, Japan, and Colombia. If you earn a spot, you’ll have to make arrangements to move to Indiana or drive/carpool if you live within driving distance.

  • - Audition materials printed out in a binder
    - Pencil
    - Water bottle
    - All sections may spend some time outside, so please make sure to wear comfortable & weather fitting clothing

  • All members are expected to attend weekend rehearsals from Friday evening-Sunday afternoon from December through April, as well as attend a camp in between Christmas and New Years. Members also must be able to attend WGI Championships which includes events during most of the week leading up to Finals.

    Members are responsible for paying member dues; the dues for the 2023-2024 season were $2,100. Member dues cover rehearsal sites, equipment, contest fees, staffing, uniforms, props, and other ensemble related needs.

    During rehearsal weekends, members must make their own arrangements for housing, transportation, and food. Meals may be provided on show days.
