A ballroom competition is great challenge to assess your skills against others working at the same level to see how you size up throughout the country. Couples  of the same level compete on a large dance floor all at once, surrounded by judges who will recall you into the next round until a final round is decided, where you will be placed 1-6. The music plays at an approved tempo and lasts about a minute and a half while all the couples begin dancing to that music. While they dance, the audience cheers, and the judges mark their sheets. At the end of the music, couples bow and walk off the floor, in escort position. The final 6 top couples are given their awards, ranging from ribbons and trophies to scholarships or even cash prizes.

Attendance is vital to progressing and maintaining the stamina to keep up, whether it’s a simple basic pattern, or complicated choreography.

There are no refunds for missed classes.

Bronze Level for beginners must complete 1-2 yrs. minimum before moving to the next level.
