They exist in the city, but they're very, very much a hobbyist sort of group. Given the audience they cater to, they're the types of groups that meet weekly and look forward to this big contest once a year. They can sometimes be hired for other gigs, but there's no way it can be their only source of income (especially divided among their group).

Some rather talented dancers have gotten their starts with groups like these, and have gone on to join on and participate in the Olympics. These occasions are very rare, though! And if you're curious, we told Ellie a bit about dancing culture here</>!
