Raidaires

Message from the Coach:

The Hudson Raidaires Dance Team is made up of two teams—Varsity and JV—comprised of dancers in grades 9 through 12. Our program is passionate about helping athletes discover their potential and grow as both dancers and individuals. We strive to foster an inclusive, supportive, and hard-working environment for all Raidaires members.

Dancers audition in the spring and begin training in May. Throughout the summer and fall, the team performs at local community events and prepares for competition season. Varsity competes in four styles: Jazz, Pom, Kick, and Hip-Hop, while JV competes in 2–3 of these styles.

The Varsity Raidaires are the 2026 D1 State Champions in Jazz and Kick and have earned 9 total state championships as a program.

Our JV team also had an outstanding season, earning the JEM JV Kick State Championship and finishing as JEM JV Pom Runner-Up.
