Solo Audition This is generally a short, first time performance to a chosen piece of music. Typically only the entrance is choreographed and the rest is freestyled. The purpose of the audition is to give the newcomer or the new dance a ‘trial run’ in front of an audience and to receive comments from the judge on how to turn the dance into a full fledged routine.

Solo Routine: This is a routine choreographed to a chosen piece of music. The performers are the only ones on the dance floor and will receive a score and comments from the judge.

Formation Routines: This is a choreographed routine for more than one couple to a chosen piece of music. The performers are judged on the same criteria as a solo routine and also on their lines and togetherness as a group. The group will receive a number score and comments from the judge.

Group Competitions: A competition in which dancers are competing against each other. The competitions are designed so that each couple will be competing against like couples. Meaning; couples in the same experience, proficiency, and age level. The judge will award 1st – 3rd and finalist awards. In the event of an uncontested group competition the couple will be
judged against the standard for that level. (no written comments for group competitions)

Multi-dance Competitions: This is a 3 dance group competition event, the same guidelines that apply to the group competitions apply to each dance in the multi-dance competition. The couples are scored on each of the dances and then the scores are combined to create an overall placing for the multi-dance event.

Spectators:
