Jr. Automotion began in 1996 along with the inaugural Automotion team. Jr. Automotion is a group of young dancers, ages 7 through 11, that have gone through an audition process amongst hundreds of other candidates. The purpose of the program is primarily to foster youth relationships with Automotion, to teach dance technique to the potential future of Automotion and to teach young girls what it is like to be on a professional dance team.
