Heats will consist of 3 Levels for the amateur section and 1 New level. The
winner from the amateur section in the regional heats will go through to the
final.
We will be adding a new category this year called The Instructor. Only 1 person
in each heat will go through to the grand final.
We
will be offering an additional place in the final for the best overall
performance of the night at each heat, this will be chosen by the judges on
which performance they enjoyed the most so make them fun no matter what level.
There
is no charge to enter this competition this is all about the fun of performing.
The Amateur section is PURLEY for Amateur’s, each entrance will be checked
before accepted.

This level is for any amateur. However long they have been dancing, they will
be judged on costume, spins and dance.
