Good Luck for Your Competition This Weekend!

​

Competition Preparation Tips

​

• Arrive on time – punctuality is essential for a smooth start.

• Bring your Ticket – you will not be allowed into the venue without it.

• Collect your number from your teacher – remember to bring safety pins and use at least two, pinned on opposite corners to keep the number flat and visible.

• Listen for your events – your teacher will support you, but it’s your responsibility to be ready. We recommend printing your own copy of the events list (available on our website).

• Be ready at least one event before your own, or earlier if you’re hoping to be recalled. Avoid jumping straight up from a seated position – stay mobile to help your circulation and performance.

• Please be patient – teachers and staff are under pressure, especially when dancing themselves or supporting first-time competitors. We appreciate your understanding.

• Finalists – if you’ve made a final, be ready to collect your award in your competition outfit for the photo opportunity.

• Buddy system – experienced dancers are encouraged to buddy up with newer competitors. If you'd like to volunteer as a buddy, let us know ahead of time!
