About Hype Dance Competition
Hype Dance Competition operates as a competition-only dance event company that hosts regional competitions across multiple cities. The company runs approximately 2 events per season, visiting cities including Detroit, Pittsburgh, and multiple Florida locations, culminating in a nationals event held in Orlando, Florida. Hype offers three skill levels to accommodate dancers of varying experience: Groundbreaking (for dancers training under 3 hours per week), Cutting Edge (3-5 hours per week), and Legendary (5+ hours per week for competitive dancers). The competition uses a comprehensive scoring system where three judges evaluate routines based on technique, staging, choreography/musicality, and overall performance execution, with each judge scoring up to 100 points for a maximum total of 300 points. Awards are distributed across five tiers: Silver (231-245.99), Gold (246-260.99), High Gold (261-275.99), Platinum (276-290.99), and Legendary (291-300). The company offers various competitive categories including solos, duos/trios, small groups, large groups, lines, and productions, with age divisions spanning Mini through Senior levels. Beyond traditional competitive awards, Hype Dance Competition features title competitions for Miss and Mr. Hype across all age divisions, special recognition awards including Choreography Awards, and an improvisational competition component that challenges dancers with 45 seconds of creative expression. The company emphasizes creating a balance between traditional competition elements and innovative features, positioning itself as an event where "traditional meets innovation."
