Competition Standards

Designed for Fair Opportunity.

01

Every Dancer Celebrated

Every dancer receives a score and a pin, ribbon, or medallion to recognize their performance.

02

Multiple Age Divisions

Clear age divisions ensure every routine is judged fairly, consistently, and competes with dancers of a similar age.

03

Divisional Overall Awards

Novice, precompetitive, and competitive overalls recognize achievement across experience levels.

Built for Dancers By Dancers

Canadian Dance Series brings a consistent, professional experience to dancers, teachers, and families across every event, with every dancer being celebrated.

Clear Standards and Organization

Every event follows our rules, with our best effort to run on time and a streamlined production, so your day can be stress free.

Fair Competition for Every Dancer

Scores are not edited, and judges' feedback is not restricted. Studios receive the results as awarded.

Complete Canadian Coverage

Our goal is to expand quality competitive opportunities across Canada so that as many studios as possible can have a local regional dance competition.

Event Media

Unlimited Event Media

Every dancer deserves the full weekend, not just a few selected moments. Canadian Dance Series partners with DanceBUG and Video Judge to make event photos, performance videos, and adjudication media easy for studios and families to access.
