Discovering Great Dance Talent Competitions

By Karina Frost


Movement, in all its forms, is and has always been a favorite hobby and past time for children and adults. While some children take lessons from an early age, others either learn in adulthood, or not at all. For those with experience, there are often a number of different dance talent competitions. Whereas, while there are some competitions for beginners, the skills required, and prizes offered are quite slim in comparison.

Most of these competitions and contests require that individuals be separated into different groups by age, style or experience. Even those that encompass all styles often have separate categories. One competition in which many different styles can be found are those like Do You Think You Can Dance and America's Got Talent.

All have different rules and guidelines. Whichever competition one finds oneself in, it is important to follow those listed at all times. Otherwise, dancers can be faced with the possibility of disqualification

It is also important to be creative in style as well as choreography. When a dancer has style with a sense of self and self-confidence, one can often go quite far in a contest. Whereas, individuals lacking either great choreography or self-confidence often do not make it to the semi-finals or finals.

Individuals interested in movement may also want to check out a few different blogs related to dance. There are also other publications like newsletters and magazines, online and off, that can provide a great deal of insight and inspiration to those involved in competitions.

When participating in online forums and discussions, it is important to remain kind at all times, even among difference. The only discussion should be about contests and movement, not lifestyles, politics or religion. Otherwise, there can be heated conversations and broken dreams which might have otherwise been realized.

For one thing, being out of line with others on an online blog or forum can often get one removed from a website. Whereas, when individuals can get along, then a great deal of information and knowledge as well as routines can be shared freely and openly. After which, individuals can decide whether or not to incorporate those ideas into future performances and routines.

Shows like Do You Think You Can Dance and America's Got Talent are good for adults. Although, it can be questioned as to whether you can call being on America's Got Talent being in a dance competition as it is more of a variety show. Whereas, America's Got Talent is a variety show. Ultimately, it is up to each individual to decide what type of competitions offer the best opportunities and prizes and whether or not to enter as some may not be as good as others.
