How we Help Our Students Pick the Right Competitions

There are numerous dance competitions taking place around the world. To enhance the chances of winning, it is essential to participate in the right competition. At Dance Studios Dubai, our instructors help students choose suitable competitions to enter. We carefully select competitions that are easily accessible from Dubai and are well-organized. While participating in any dance competition is a good idea as such events boost students’ confidence and provide them with a much-needed platform to be career-ready and face real-time situations.

How To Participate In Ballroom Dance Competitions?

The Dance Studios Dubai team is often one of the first to receive information about upcoming international dance competitions. When we receive details about a ballroom dance competition, we announce it to our students two to three months in advance and open the sign-up list. Once you sign up, your instructor will guide you throughout the process. They will discuss and help you plan a schedule for your performances. They will assist you in selecting the appropriate costume and provide support and guidance throughout the competition.

Some of our instructors themselves participate in the “Professionals” category, and alongside them, our students can participate in either the professional or amateur category, depending on their skill level. Students can even choose to participate as a couple with their instructors. If you are a couple, you can opt to participate as “Amateurs” and dance with other new couples, or you can split and dance with your instructor as a Pro/Am partnership.

When Is the Right Time to Compete?

Most ballroom dance contests worldwide have novice levels of competition. Students with as little as 25 hours of instruction can participate in the novice and beginners’ levels. As explained earlier, depending on your experience and skill level, you can participate in different competitions and have the opportunity to win prizes.

Is It Expensive To Compete?

Every competition requires an entry fee, which varies depending on factors such as the location, the number of dances you are competing in, and the duration of the competition. If you are participating with an instructor, typically the cost of the instructor is covered by the students. However, in many cases, multiple students participate, and the cost of the instructor is divided among them.

Are There Any Age Or Gender Restrictions?

One of the remarkable aspects of ballroom dancing is that it transcends age and gender barriers. Students as young as five years old and as old as 65 years old, regardless of their gender, can participate in competitions. However, to ensure fairness and equity, age categories are defined, and participants compete within their respective age groups. Men and women can compete with their instructors, sometimes against participants of the same sex and sometimes against those of the opposite sex.

What Do Participants Wear in The Competition?

In general, ballroom dancing competitions require participants to wear special dance costumes that are relevant to the dance style. This is no different in the Pro-AM system, where also in pro/am, couples (where a professional dances with an amateur), are expected to follow a suggested dress codes provided by the competition, such as formal tails and ballgowns for standard dances or Latin shirts/pants and sassy dresses for Latin dances. Dance costumes can be made-to-order and can also be purchased second-hand from other dancers. Therefore, if you are concerned about the cost of costumes, you can rest assured that it is not a major worry. Novice dancers typically wear cocktail formals for their first competition, and depending on the competition rules, specific costumes may be required. And in either case, your instructor from Dance Studios Dubai is always there to guide you and suggest the right costumes.
