How Does It Work?
The battle features three rounds designed to test creativity, adaptability, musicality, and performance.
In each round, competitors dance twice. The first set is focused on solo dancing and footwork. The second set allows dancers to incorporate partnerwork, tricks, lifts, flips, and other performance elements.
Round 1: Rep Your Style
Dance to music from your own genre and showcase what makes your style unique.
Round 2: Flip the Script
Dance to music selected from your opponent's genre while staying true to your own style.
Round 3: Conversation Battle
Finalists face off in a back-and-forth exchange where Latin and Hip Hop dancers respond to one another through movement, musicality, and creativity.
