There are three rounds. Each round, the judges eliminate about 3-4 teams. The performances will be judged on creativity of music and dance, formation changes, skills, entertainment value, and costumes.
Stylez has been preparing for this competition since November. The captains have choreographed over 12 dances since then. They and another fellow dancer have also attended the Monsters of Hip Hop Dance Convention in Washington, D.C. to get inspiration. The dancers on the team have choreographed 2 small dances as well.
We have put in a lot of work into preparing for this competition. Last year, due to poor leadership, the team did not prepare for this competition until a month before. Our performance clearly showed how unprepared we were. If we do not make it past the first round again, I will truly be devastated. The team and I have poured ourselves into creating these dances. We have worked endless hours on our routines, mixes, formations, etc.
I believe we will kick ass. There's no question about that. We are all very talented dancers. I simply concerned that the crowd or judges will not like what we bring. Last year, a lot of the other teams had freestyle battles. Our dance team has more music video-esque elements. We have actual choreography and difficult moves.
*shrug* It's crunch time for Stylez, but we are fully prepared this year. I will post the videos of our dances once the show is taped. Wish us good luck!
