JUDGES
Here you will find all the information about the judges - where they are from, what round they will judge, what discipline and what dance style they specialize in.
Each age category will be evaluated by the same judges in that round, which means that there will be no division of international judges for the adult category only, for example.
Evaluation
Best of the Best judges are accomplished dancers, professionals in their own style with extensive experience in dance, its teaching and most importantly, choreography.
The condition is that they have not choreographed any of the choreographies in the competition they are judging and that they do not regularly collaborate with any of the competing groups.
Each discipline has 3 judges who are specialists in that style.
One judge can be specialized in 1 or 2 dance styles.
