TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES:

* When a competitor’s music doesn’t play entirely or skips due to DJ error, a competitor may:

  1. Finish their routine without music (possibly affecting musicality marks)
  2. Ask the music to be cued again and start their routine from the beginning right away
  3. Let the next competitor go, then re-run routine from the beginning
  4. Wait until the end of the line up in their division and re-run routine from the beginning

* In all cases except #1, judges are required to disregard ALL previous scores and score the competitor from the beginning of their second run as if the first run never happened.

Be sure to pick something that moves you and will make you give a great performance. Try to pick what you would think will be a crowd-pleaser; having the audience behind you makes it more motivating!
