Competition Entrant Information
Entrant Fees
NO TROUPE Entry Fees for the competition!!
All participants must pay for at least two workshops instead!
Categories
All categories are based on size alone. There is the Duet class with two dancers, Small troupe with 3 to 4 dancers, Medium troupe with 5 to 7 dancers and Large troupe with 8 and above. Along with the 1st, 2nd and 3rd prize in each category there is also the Innovator Award given to the most creative troupe, and the Grand Prize winners who have the highest scores overall.
The judges base their scores on three different criteria: Choreographic concepts, technical execution and overall stage presence.
Choreographies
All choregraphies must be original- that is to say created by someone in the troupe or connected to the troupe. Don't use one you learned at a workshop or off of a video or DVD.
Dance Styles
Middle Eastern Dance is what we are looking for. Other dance styles are welcome but will only be considered for the Innovator category.
Time Limits
Duets and small troupes have 5-7 minutes, medium and large troupes have 7-9 minutes. However these are simply guidelines and if you need more time let us know.
