If you've ever won a contest or you've competed over five times, you're considered experienced; otherwise, you're novice. Competitors will dance with others at their own level during the prelims, and those who get to finals will be partnered with someone of the other level. There will be a total of six couples in the finals.


NOTE: Competition registration does NOT include a ticket to the social dance. Competitors must purchase a dance ticket separately.
