WORLD OF DANCE RETURNS MIDSEASON | s-NBC NBC’s hit dance competition series “World of Dance” is led by a judging team of extraordinary dance superstars — Jennifer Lopez (who also serves as an executive producer), Derek Hough, and NE-YO. The series will give dancers the platform to showcase their talents and the opportunity to receive a life-altering grand prize of $1 million. In partnership with preeminent global dance brand World of Dance, the series brings the world’s elite dancers together to compete in epic battles of artistry, precision and athleticism. Solo dancers will compete against duos and crews in an unlimited range of dance, including hip-hop, popping, locking, tap, ballet, z breakdancing, ballroom, stomping and more. The contestants are handpicked from qualifying events around the nation and thousands of online submissions. New this season, the competitors are divided into four divisions: Junior (17 years old and under, one to four dancers), Junior Team (17 years old and under, five to 15 dancers), Upper (18 years old and older, one to four dancers), Upper Team (18 years old and older, five to 15 dancers). Our panel of experts scores the acts using a precise point system developed by World of Dance, using the following criteria: Performance, Technique, Choreography, Creativity and Presentation. The competition consists of five rounds: Qualifiers, Duels, The Cut, Divisional Final and the World Final. In the first four rounds, dancers only compete within their division, but in the World Final, the winners from each division compete against each other for the grand prize. BellMediaSales.ca .

The B-Boy Summit Internationally Acclaimed B-Boy/B-Girl Event
THE B-BOY SUMMIT INTERNATIONALLY ACCLAIMED B-BOY/B-GIRL EVENT Produced by No Easy Props OVERVIEW The B-boy Summit continues to be a major trendsetter in Hip-Hop street dance, art and music culture. Established in 1994, The Summit presented innovative ideas in Hip-Hop culture, offering a conference forum complete with competitions, performances, panels, workshops, and a marketplace for consumer friendly products marketed toward the Hip-Hop community. Never content with success, The B-boy Summit continues its mission to bring the hottest street dance, art, and music above ground to the masses. The B-boy Summit has grown into an internationally acclaimed 3 day festival incorporating all aspects of Hip-Hop in different plateaus, including the most intense battles, rawest circles, theatre performances, a DJ/MC Talent Showcase and live aerosol art painting. The B-boy Summit was created in 1994 out of the need for a community orientated Hip-Hop event that encompassed knowledge of the history of Hip-Hop culture and the skills of B-boying and B-girling. At that point in time B-boys and B-girls didn’t have a platform in which to come together, dance and pay homage to the traditional dance of Hip-Hop. Each year the event has expanded to encompass B-boys, B-girls, MCs, Aerosol Artists, and DJs from across the globe, steadily building into what is now the foremost Hip-Hop cultural event in the world. More recently, The Summit has become one of the most important events for Lockers, Poppers, Freestyle and House Dancers to take part in during The Summit’s Funk Fest.

How Breakdancing Taught Me to Be a Technical Artist
How breakdancing taught me to be a technical artist Robbert-Jan Brems Technical Artist Codemasters Hello ladies and gentlemen, my name is Robbert-Jan Brems. I'm currently technical artist at Codemasters and here to present you my talk : “How breakdancing taught me to be a technical artist” I only have been working as a professional technical artist in the video game industry for just over a year, but I have been breakdancing for almost nine years, and dancing for almost seventeen. The reason I am telling you this will become more apparent later on. Just out of curiosity, are there any breakdancers in this room? Well, the good news is that you do not need any breakdance related experiences to understand this talk. The main reason why I wanted to do this talk was because I have the feeling that as a person it is really easy to be looking through the same window as everybody else. What I mean with that is when we follow the same route to find knowledge as everybody else, we end up knowing the same things while missing out on other potentially important knowledge. By telling you my life story as a breakdancer and a game developer I want to illustrate how I reflect the knowledge that I obtained through breakdancing to my profession as a technical artist. So, the goal of my talk is to hopefully inspire people to start looking for knowledge by looking at learning from a different perspective. Once upon a time ... I started dancing when I was around 7 years old.

Urban Street Dance Department Divisions and Competition Rules Break Dance Division Urban Street Dance Division Implemented by the WADF Managing Committee January 2020 Artistic Dance Departments, Divisions and Competition Rules WADF Managing Committee Nils-Håkan Carlzon President Irina Shmalko Stuart Saunders Guido de Smet Senior Vice President Executive Secretary Vice President Marian Šulc Gordana Orescanin Roman Filus Vice President Vice President Vice President Page 2 Index Artistic Dance Departments, Divisions and Competition Rules Urban Street Dance Department Section G-2 Urban Street Dance Division Urban Street Dance Competitions Urban Street Urban Street Dance is a broad category that includes a variety of urban styles. The older dance styles that were created in the 1970s include up-rock, breaking, and the funk styles. At the same time breaking was developing in New York, other styles were being created in California. Several street dance styles created in California in the 1970s such as roboting, bopping, hitting, locking, bustin', popping, electric boogaloo, strutting, sac-ing, and dime-stopping. It is historically inaccurate to say that the funk styles were always considered hip-hop. "Hip-Hop Dance" became an umbrella term encompassing all of these styles. Tempo of the Music: Tempo: 27 - 28 bars per minute (108 - 112 beats per minute) Characteristics and Movement: Different new dance styles, such as Quick Popping Crew, Asian style, African style, Hype Dance, New-Jack-Swing, Popping & Locking, Jamming, etc., adding creative elements such as stops, jokes, flashes, swift movements, etc. Some Electric and Break movements can be performed but should not dominate. Floor figures are very popular but should not dominate the performance.

Hip hop dance has taken many forms throughout its four decades ofexistence. This research shows that regardless ofthe form there are three prominent characteristics: performance, personal style, and competition. Although it is possible to isolate the study ofeach ofthese characteristics, they are inseparable when defining hip hop dance. There are several genre-specific performance formats in which hip hop dance is experienced. Personal style includes the individuality and creativity that is celebrated in the hip hop dancer. Competition is the inherent driving force that pushes hip hop dancers to extend the form's physical limitations.

Her love for dance began at a young age under the tutelage of Anita Johnstone, owner of Highland Dance Academy and she continued studying the Royal Academy Dance techniques until graduating high school in 2016. Along the way, Allison discovered her home within the jazz and tap world through dancing with Kelsey Ruth and Sarah Bordenet at Cascade Dance Academy.

Regulating the Rave Scene: Exploring the Policy Alternatives of Government
October 10, 2003 15:40 LSC TJ819-02 Leisure Sciences, 25:307–325, 2003 Copyright C 2003 Taylor & Francis 0149-0400/03 $12.00 + .00 DOI: 10.1080/01490400390240446 Regulating the Rave Scene: Exploring the Policy Alternatives of Government TROY D. GLOVER Department of Recreation and Leisure Studies University of Waterloo Waterloo, Ontario, Canada Given the recent interest in raves by municipal officials across North America, the intent behind this manuscript is to explore the various policy alternatives that government might consider in response to rave culture and the “threat” of Ecstasy on youth. In particular, the paper focuses on three policy options: tolerance, prohibition, and harm reduction. A discussion of the alternatives and suggestions about the suitability of each one is outlined. Before doing so, however, a detailed discussion about rave culture, its dimensions, and its association with deviance is provided. Given the relative absence of analyses in the leisure literature of rave culture and the regulation of leisure behavior, it is hoped that the following manuscript will serve as a point of departure for further study on “deviant” leisure and the appropriateness of government intervention. Keywords rave culture, deviant leisure, youth, resistance, government regulation, lib- erty, policy alternatives Are the benefits of leisure truly endless? Most leisure researchers seemingly think so, pre- sumably because they trust that leisure has the potential to contribute positively to the quality of individuals’ lives. Not surprisingly, such sentiments have led many academicians to join forces with the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA) in its campaign to pro- mote the benefits of leisure (NRPA, 2001).
