There is nothing quite like the Glitz 'n Glamour of a dancing competition. This is where you get to test your skills against couples of similar age and / or skill level.

While a number of competitions have a social section, where anyone can have a go, the greatest action is in the Dancesport events.

Dancesport is the governing body for Latin American, Standard and New Vogue here in Australia. You can find out about Dancesport here.

There is plenty of choice when it comes to competition. In Adelaide there are a number of "grass-roots" local events, Championships and State Titles. For those who want more, there are plenty more events interstate and three major National Championships.

1. National Capital Dancesport Championships - Canberra
2. South Pacific Dancesport Championships - Sydney
3. Australian Dancesport Championship - Melbourne

Check the News and Articles sections for additional information.

The Australian Dancesport Championship is the event where the representatives for the World Championships in Ballroom and Latin are selected.

The  10 Dance World Championship representatives are selected at the South Pacific Dancesport Championships.

Still want more? Don't worry, Dancesport is a truly international sport and there are plenty of events around the world, including Grand Slams and World Championships.

The Mecca of dancing is in Blackpool, England. We have a separate article on Blackpool here.

Dancesport ensures that everyone has a fair go, and when you compete, you compete against couples of similar skill and age. You can find a link to Dancesport on our links page. All the current rules are available there.
