Discovering Great Dance Talent Competitions

By Karina Frost


Movement, in all its forms, is and has always been a favorite hobby and past time for children and adults. While some children take lessons from an early age, others either learn in adulthood, or not at all. For those with experience, there are often a number of different dance talent competitions. Whereas, while there are some competitions for beginners, the skills required, and prizes offered are quite slim in comparison.

Generally, these contests require that individuals be grouped by age, or experience. Depending on the competition, some are free, and others cost a fortune to register. As such, it is advised that when looking for a competition, individuals do so by searching and exploring a number of different ones.

All have different rules and guidelines. Whichever competition one finds oneself in, it is important to follow those listed at all times. Otherwise, dancers can be faced with the possibility of disqualification

When participating in any competition, it is important to wear creative costuming, have amazing choreography and self-confidence. When these elements are present, dancers often win. Whereas, when working without a choreographer or costumes, and performing with a lack of confidence, a win is most likely out of the picture. Those who do not win, need to remember the same judges may be present at other events and avoid confrontation and take losses as a motivation to work harder before the next competition.

Perusing blogs and other publications can often be a good way to obtain information about contests as well as information for routines. Other publications like magazines and newsletters can often offer even more information on the topic, including different summer camps and festivals related to movement.

Individuals can also share with others on a blog and gain important perspective and ideas for present and future routines. At times, these connections can often lead to the formation of a team which provides a broader scope for future competitions. Beyond that, individuals can make new friends of like mind to meet up with at different competitions and other events in the future. At times, these connections can often lead to lifelong friendships and relationships.

Individuals can often can a great deal of advice and information through different dance related publications. These can include blogs, magazines, newsletters and others. When looking for a publication, individuals might want to look for a specific form and style, or one that encompasses all aspects.

To get the most out of dance related information, it is probably best to sign up on multiple dance blogs. In doing so, individuals can find a variety of information that might otherwise be available in traditional learning formats. It is also important to rehearse several hours a day if an individual truly wants a chance at winning a competition.

While some prime-time television shows may be considered reality, in reality these are variety shows. Shows like America's Got Talent is a variety show. Whereas, shows like Do You Think You Can Dance are actual focused contests. The same thing can be said for those related to music, American Idol and The Voice are not variety shows but rather vocal contests. As such, when looking to become involved on competitions on a larger scale, it is often best to focus on one which highlights a specific talent.
