GENERAL FAQs
Q: What is the timeline for the Mock Audition?
A: Plan for 9:00am to 5:00pm. Further details and rundown of the day will be sent upon registration.
Q: What should I wear to the Mock Audition?
A: We recommend wearing the two-piece audition outfit that you're considering wearing for your upcoming audition. That way, we can provide feedback on your audition look, if you'd like. It's also an excellent chance to practice dancing and performing in your outfit to make sure everything fits comfortably and allows you to be your most confident self. If you do not have an audition outfit, any two-piece is fine (for example, a sports bra top and briefs/shorts).
Q: Are you offering a virtual option of the mock audition?
A: Not this time. The Mock Audition itself will be in-person in the Bay Area. The optional interview portion will take place virtually over Zoom. If you're not able to join us on May 21st, we highly recommend the MTS prep course as it is online, self-paced, and can be done anytime, anywhere.
Q: What happens once I purchase?
A: You will receive a welcome email and further details. Specifics and rundowns will be sent closer to the event.
Q: Do you offer any payment plans?
A: Yes! Message us on IG @thecultivatecode or send us an email at [email protected] and we’ll send you the options.
Q: Will the MTS Mock audition help me if I’m auditioning for NFL, NBA, or a semi-pro or college team?
A: Yes! The foundational pieces are the same for most auditions, and the program gives you insight into what it takes to make it onto a team from the judges perspective. So no matter which pro, semi, or college audition you are going into you, can have the foundation and tools to help you feel confident.
