Comprised of eighteen talented dancers, Homestead's Varsity dance team completes their jazz dance with determination and perseverance. The eleven hours of practice a week are crucial to the finishing product of this dance. Decorated with variations of war make-up the girls lure the crowd in with their expressions of aggression, intensity, and determination. To help create a fierce atmosphere, the girls have choreographed vocal parts that will add to the intensity of the performance. A plethora of precise and sharp movements completely take up two minutes worth of time on the competition floor. With the help of being in shape, the girls are able to maintain and keep up their stamina throughout the entire performance. By the two-colored costumes, the audience is able to distinguish the Red Team from the Purple Team. Ultimately, the team's goal is to captivate the audience. They want the audience members to select their favorite team, fight for them with cheers and encouragement from the stands, and to 'help' them win the battle. Even though the girls are essentially fighting for their color, together they make up one team, a unit, and a family.

Nice response here about the dance team, and great writing on the Hunger Games, too. I hope they do a good job with that movie.
