DSU Dance Team

Picture History

The Dakota State Dance Team was started during the 1995-96 academic year by Donna Kliche and Molly Schoepf.  Our team has developed over the years to include many styles of dance such as jazz and funk, hip hop, and recently integrated stomp.  We work hard to produce different routines for each performance, but we also have a lot of fun. Here are a few pictures from previous years!
