About Get The Beat USA
Get The Beat USA is the United States arm of Get The Beat (GTB), a family-owned dance competition company that has run events across Australia and Asia for 15 seasons. Its first US season, Season One, runs in 2027 and comprises six three-day regional competitions - Coeur d'Alene, Idaho; Novato, California; Phoenix, Arizona; Detroit, Michigan; Houston, Texas; and Las Vegas, Nevada - followed by a six-day National Finals at the Hawaii Theatre in Honolulu in December 2027. Dancers compete in six age divisions set two years apart (Mini, Petite, Pre Junior, Junior, Teen and Senior); solo, duo and trio ages are calculated from the first day of the event, while group divisions use the average age of the dancers in the act as at January 1 of the event year. Entry types include General Solo, My First Solo, Beginner Solo, Champion Solo, the Mr GTB and Miss GTB Title solos, duos, trios, small and large groups and productions, with a four-dancer minimum for groups. Routines are scored out of 100 by an international judging panel, sections are placed first through fifth, and every performer receives an award. The group package is charged once per dancer per event and covers unlimited group routines. A professional Pointe Shoot Love performance video is included in the price of every act, and selected dancers from the tour can earn Brent Street training camp vouchers and a two-week training experience in Australia.

Sections are placed first through fifth and every performer receives an award, with non-placing medals for the rest of the section. Championship sections and the Mr GTB and Miss GTB Title solos are decided on stage. My First Solo entrants each receive a commemorative medal for their debut performance. Selected dancers from across the tour can earn Brent Street (Sydney) training camp vouchers and a two-week Brent Street training experience in Australia, and GTB also awards flights and prize packs across the season.
Routines are scored out of 100 and returned with a clear score breakdown, so studios can see where each mark came from. GTB engages an international judging panel of adjudicators who are currently active in the industry, and every act receives instant audio feedback through the studio portal at no extra cost.
