Showdance is a dance discipline that offers more than just technique and rhythmic precision. It is a world where dance becomes a story.
Dancing couples choose their music, create choreography, and infuse it with emotion, thought, and imagination. The audience is enchanted and satisfied by the mix that the dancing couple offers them with their Showdance...
How does showdance work?
Unlike classical competitions, a dance couple must connect at least three different dances from the standard or Latin American disciplines during one show.
It all serves the cohesive concept – a dramatic story, a cinematic motif, or an artistic expression.
An interesting fact is that showdance allows so-called "supported lifts," which are lifts and acrobatic elements that are strictly forbidden in regular competitions.
Thanks to them, showdance is unique in its dynamics and tension, which resembles a theatrical or film performance.
We most often encounter this dance style on television screens in the dance show StarDance, where couples tell their story through dance.
