Whether you are competing, cheering on your team, or simply celebrating the joy of dance, we invite you to be part of the USA Dance community.
We warmly welcome all competitors and ballroom dancers—from seasoned champions to newcomers taking their first steps onto the competition floor—to join us at our exciting lineup of ballroom competitions across the country. These events celebrate the artistry, athleticism, and camaraderie that define our sport, providing opportunities for dancers of every level to shine.
