New & Not

This event will be done as a luck-of-the-draw event, meaning that partners will be assigned to each randomly and each dancer will not know who their partner is until the day of the event. Each couple will consist of one “new” dancer and one “not new” dancer. Detailed rules for this event, including the specific choreography that must be danced, can be found in the New & Not document.

Competition Rules
