Many dance competitions are unorganized, unfriendly, and overbooked leaving studios and dancers feeling discouraged and disheartened after a long weekend of competing.
We’ve created a competition that thrives on building community between dancers and studios and our crew and judges are a critical part of making this possible. We provide a space for dancers to learn and grow while recognizing teachers and choreographers for their efforts.
Studios love Ignite Dance Competition because they leave each weekend knowing their dancers were inspired, valued, and recognized for their talent and technique. Be part of a team that builds community, inspires the next generation of dancers, and creates the best experience possible for all.
