JACK & JILL COMPETITIONS - 150 NOK PER COMPETITOR
Jack & Jill competitions allow individuals to enter without a partner and demonstrate skills in spontaneous dancing with a variety of partners. There is an inherent “luck of the draw” factor involved. Leaders and followers are randomly paired. There will be several partner changes during the preliminary and semi-final rounds. Competitors in Newcomer and Novice are scored individually on timing, technique and teamwork in the preliminary heats. Higher levels include varied basics, styling, and musicality. Those scoring the highest will be called back later to dance in a final round. In the final, individuals are randomly paired, then scored as a couple. The DJ picks the music. Tempo and style will vary. All songs will be appropriate for the dance division entered. There are significant prizes awarded to the winners.
-You may only enter 1 division of Jack & Jill per dance.
