Solo Jazz

This category is a non-partner division. Competitors will all dance together to a variety of tempos. Finalists will be selected to dance, possibly individually or all at the same time to a variety of tempos. This competition is sponsored by Lindy Focus and an upgradeable dance pass will be awarded to the first place winner. This competition will take place on Friday evening.

Mix & Match Mashup - New Format!

Contestants sign up individually. There will be 2 back-to-back preliminaries. Group A is for less experienced dancers in the role chosen, tracks Red and Pink (possibly Orange, depending on experience). Group B is for more experienced dancers, tracks Green, Yellow and Blue. You can only register for one role because the 2 preliminaries will lead to the same final. In each preliminary, contestants will be paired randomly with several partners and will dance to a variety of tempos. Finalists for each role will be selected independently within each group. For the finals, partners will be randomly paired, one from Group A and one from Group B, and judged as a duo. Finalist pairs may be required to dance individually and at the same time as other competitors to a variety of tempos. This competition is sponsored by Canadian Swing Championships and event prizes will be awarded to first place winners. It will take place on Saturday evening. Big thanks to our friends from Providence Swings for the inspiration for this format and their many years of hosting their wonderful event, the Dirty Dozen Weekend.
