Do you have what it takes to be a DYNAMITE SOLO CHAMPION?!

At each regional event, we will host a Dynamite Title Competition. This will take place on the last day of the competition before the Dynamite Battle of the Best. This is for dancers in the Competitive Division who wish to have their routine judged for the chance to win the Dynamite Solo Champion of their age division.

Title Solo Age Divisions

• 5 & under – Dynamite Sweet Pea
• 6-8 years – Dynamite Mini
• 9-11 years – Dynamite Junior
• 12-14 years – Dynamite Inter
• 15-18 years – Dynamite Senior

Soloist can enter one Solo into the Title Competition.  There is a separate entry fee to upgrade a Solo to Title. Each solo is judged on the overall presentation of their performance and everything is weighed equally (talent, choreography, technique, overall presentation) with only one score. We will award a TITLE WINNER and a 1st Runner Up for each of the age divisions.

TITLE WINNER – Will receive a custom award, a sash, a tiara (if female), and a Customized Dynamite Jacket.

1st RUNNER UP – Will receive a custom award, a sash and Dynamite Swag.
