When judging a dance competition, many considerations come into play. Almost all dance competitions include the following 7 categories on the scoring rubric: 1. Age 2. Level 3. Technique 4. Performance Quality 5. Choreography 6. Presentation 7. Overall Impression
Most dance competitions use a point system to score dancers. Three judges use 100 points each to score routines, and those 100 points are divided up among the different categories in the rubric. A sample scoring rubric might look like this:
As the dancers perform their routine, judges speak into a microphone that records their commentary and critiques over the video of the routine. Usually recorded on a zip drive, the critiques are given to the studio owner at the end of the event. Audio critiques can be compared to a sportscaster speaking during a game, but instead of only giving a p...
The scale for adjudication at a competition can sometimes vary depending on the levels, which were mentioned previously. This is one of the most confusing parts of dance competitions for the uninitiated. For example, Celebration Talent Competitionhas three levels of competition – Protostar (the beginner level), Rising Star (the intermediate level),...
In addition to a dancer’s adjudication score, most competitions also award overall awards, which get more specific in terms of where a dancer places within their age category and style of dance. Typically, a dance competition will announce the top 5 or 10 dances in an overall category in this fashion – “First Place in the Shining Star Division, 8-1...
The title category is an additional competition within the competition, that usually incurs an additional fee as well. A soloist can enter into the title category to compete for a competition’s “Miss” or “Mr.” title, or something like “Dancer of the Year”. Normally, the solo a dancer enters for a title is not eligible for overalls. Some competition...
After looking at the adjudication scales, which I showed you early in a table, you can see that the area with the most points available is the technique score. It is very hard to score well at a dance competition without having a high technique score. A dancer can be the very best performer out there, with personality, great eye contact, and a winn...
A good dance competition judge has experience both in the studio and on the professional stage. They understand how to give helpful critiques with actionable advice on how to execute a step. They also understand how to score fairly with critiques that back up that score. If a judge gives a low technique score but never talks about what is wrong and...
Dance competition judges go through a variety of different possible screenings to get a job with a competition. Often, applicants simply email a competition with their resume and biography, detailing their experience in the dance world. Some competitions will hire based on those criteria alone if they are impressive enough. They will also look for ...
