Training includes extra coaching per week and costs are involved such a hall hire, coaching fees, costumes and competition entry fees.  All competitors must be actively involved in the Calisthenic Skills Program.  Evatt holds a small solo and duo concert before competitions start as a dress rehearsal - all are welcome.  Calisthenic Solo Calisthenic Solo is a combination of strong movements involving high levels of flexibility, extension of movement, control and uniformity of rhythm, testing an individual's natural grace and dance stamina, flexibility and timing. It is optional for competitors to use props or apparatus. Graceful Solo Graceful Girl is an individual's ability to interpret music through graceful flowing movements, feeling and softness demonstrated through body movements and facial expressions. Calisthenics Duo Similar to the Calisthenic Solo, but where two competitors perform together interpreting a theme and often characters. Performers must interact and relate to one another. Often these routines are comical and very enjoyable for the performers and audience.
