Why Tops N Texas (TNT) Dance Challenge?
We Truly Are Different!
First off we are only in the Great State of TEXAS! Because of this we are hitting towns other than
the big 4, this allows several cities who have had to travel for each and every regional in the past
a chance to stay local and save that huge gasoline bill! That makes TNT even MORE economical
than our counterparts. We offer a VIP sanctuary for Directors & Teachers with live video feed of
the event and free catered refreshments. We offer our video qualifier to studios that reside
more than 100 miles from one of our regional event cities and our VIP room at the regionals as
well. Also, we are not only adjudicated we are a true competition with 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place
standings (provided there are more than 1 in each performance category). At our State Finals
Event, we will crown the Tops N Texas Dance Challenge Studio. This award is determined by
averaging the scores of each studio's routines. Therefore it doesn't matter if you have 5 or 50
routines The Studio with the highest average will win the Title and all the perks that come with
that title! Plus a year's worth of bragging rights as...
The TOP STUDIO N TEXAS!

So How Do My Routines Qualify?
You may participate at any of our regional events, video qualifier if you live over 100 miles from
one of our regional events, or last chance qualifier at State Finals. Dances that obtain a Platinum,
Gold or Silver award are eligible to compete at our State Finals Event. Each regional also has a
workshop. At the regionals you receive one free workshop entry for every 10 routines that are
entered upto the number of students and teachers you have in attendance. You may also bring
students from your studio for the workshop that are not competing. The rates are listed on the
Fees page. We do not accept independant entries for competition, however, individuals may
attend the workshops. Each studio must enter at least 6 routines in our regionals of which 3 must
be a group (4 or more dancers) entry.
