Competitive dancing ...

If you love to dance ...
 ... then experience the RUSH of Competition ?

Competitive dancing is for those who love to dance and who want to take their dance to the next level. Anyone, of Any Dance Ability can compete. There are many levels of dance competition and we can help you choose which level is right for you. You can compete in the Open Divisions (against all ages), or you may choose to compete in the Age Divisions (against same age. - eg. 30 year olds, 40 year olds, etc.). You can also choose from many different dances and styles of dance. If you have a partner you may choose to dance as a Couple or if you are single you may choose to dance as a Pro-Am with your instructor.

Competitive Dancing can be done locally, or you can choose to travel throughout North America to different events. Seeing new cities, meeting new people and making new friends. Check out all the places we are going by clicking on our Workshops & Event Page.

Pro-Am

Pro-Am is danced by an Amateur student with his/her PROfessional dance instructor, therefore you DO NOT NEED A PARTNER. Only the amateur is judged based on how well he/she meets the standards for their division and level. Each division/level is judged by certified professionals and the awards/standings are based on a medal system (Gold, Silver, Bronze, etc.). You may have been watching "Dancing With The Stars"? This competition is a PRO-AM competition, where the Amateur is a celebrity that is teamed up with a Professional dancer/instructor. John or Dee Soares can help you get started. 

Couples

Competitive Couples are comprised of two Amateur students competing together. Both members of the couple are being judged based on how well they meet the standards for their division and level in comparison to other competitive couples. As in Pro-Am, each division/level is judged by certified professionals and awards/standings are based on ranking system (First Place, Second Place, etc.). Couples dancing is one of the most rewarding partnerships there is. Both members of the couple/partnership can learn added communication and team building skills.
