I'd say keep learning new routines. keep everything fresh. people like new. that has worked in our experience. always doing new routines kept it exciting

do it online!

What's up, I have judged 3 competitions in the past month and a half. 2/3 comps had teams come into the judges meetings saying they had issues hearing their own mix. This is ridiculous. If I put myself in the position of a current captain/dancer, and I'm spending anywhere from $35 - 65 per...

I should also add: if the team or certain people cannot accomplish the footwork of a step, they'll never be able to do the step. Footwork is everything. It allows your body to move and flow into and out of steps. Without the footwork, everything above the waist will be effed. Focus there...

When we started, we leveraged gigs. We barely could get 6 guys together for a practice. We'd take maybe 4 to a gig. But those gigs got us into the community light. We would always ask for donations to help get us started. Any events, grad parties, sweet 16s even doing them for free because...

Going to be a super competitive comp. Best of luck to all! Excited to see what SDN brings. Texas has so much untapped talent

keep listening to and finding songs. thats where mixers pull them from.

Burgh lighting cues: However they did it, and whatever they used for lighting should be used everywhere. They let us detail when a cue was to happen down to a millisecond. they opened our mix on audacity, located and made a marking when a cue should start and stop and they programmed it...
