1:00–5:00 PM • Partner Required (no rotation)
Take your Strictly to the next level with a focused afternoon of power-move refinement, performance coaching, and full contest simulation. Bring a partner you want to train with — it does not need to be your competition partner, but we will not rotate.

🕐 1:00–3:00 PM — Power Moves, Performance & Strictly Strategy
In this session, we’ll workshop the moves you want to highlight in your next Strictly — from lifts and tricks to dynamic shapes, footwork accents, and partnered highlights.
We’ll cover:
• Cleaning up technique so your power moves look polished and safe
• How to present your highlights in a way that reads clearly to judges and shows off your artistic choices
• Performance quality and how to project confidence and partnership
• Strictly strategy — how to build rounds that flow, connect, and stand out as well as matching movement to music
You’ll get personalized coaching to help you refine what you want to showcase.

🕒 3:00–5:00 PM — Strictly Mock Contest (Prelims + Finals)
A full Strictly competition simulation with live coaching and feedback.
You’ll experience:
✨ Prelim rounds
✨ Finals structure, including spotlight expectations
✨ On-the-spot feedback to help you improve round by round
✨ Insight into judge criteria, floor presence, and partnership dynamics
This is the safest space to test ideas, make mistakes, get coached, and leave ready to shine in your next Strictly.
