Florida Ballroom Dance Competitions
Ballroom dancesport competitions are organized into small, medium and large events. A small ballroom dance competition is usually a 1-Day event and is usually not very contested, which make them perfect for newcomer and beginner dancers. Normally, a new Pro-Am student dancer that wants to compete starts with a small event (1-Day), then progresses to a medium event (2-3 days), then later to much bigger events (4-6 days). There are a few bigger dance events that are also great for newcomers, and we’ll make sure to point them out.
