COMPETITION DETAIL

This is my first time attending Bloom with my dancers and it is one of the most welcoming competitions we’ve ever been to! All dancers and staff have been very friendly and respectful. I also love the attention to detail in theming and overall mission of Bloom. Planning to attend Nationals!

My daughter loves this competition. She feels free to just dance and be herself. It’s always a good time!

Amazing love this composition come here ever year

Bloom has been a wonderful experience overall. The staff has been great! Love the Thunder award, so exciting for the dancers!

This is our first year at Bloom and it was a great experience for parents and dancers! Thanks for a great time Bloom!

We love Bloom! This is our 3rd year competing here and it's always a great time! The competition runs smoothly, is always on time, and the judges always leave help l critiques. My two girls are always happy to compete with Bloom!

This is a GREAT, positive, encouraging competition, group of studios & venue. We were glad to learn that photos and videos are free online, but I think if more people heard that, or it was announced more often during the competition, that you would have more cooperation and less people trying to take pictures and videos. Also, the level of chatter (& people on the phone), esp as the day went on, definitely got to a rude level! My family and I felt bad for the dancers and the judges. Otherwise, the venue starting to be small for Bloom, it was wonderful that each group had their own classroom.

Staff was so friendly and helpful!!!

Love Bloom! So well run and love the aesthetic of the whole atmosphere. The Thunder awards are so fun!

The staff is so kind and the event is run very smoothly. It’s a very supportive environment.

You can tell that Bloom cares about dancers and making their experience a good one. Their staff is kind and they move everything along very smoothly. We’re always happy competing with them!

Bloom is a fun, exciting and well organized comp! Love that they are in Chicago!

Great competition!

Bloom is so welcoming and organized. The check in table and merchandise are wonderful. The competition is run so professionally.

We found Bloom last year and we are so happy we did! It is such a positive and nurturing environment. As a studio owner I love the expert judges—their feedback was top notch. Which a great experience!

Bloom is one of the most safest competitions that I have ever been to. They provide the dancers with a fun experience that would help the dancers improve their dance. I would highly recommend this competition!

Bloom is AMAZING! Such friendly and helpful staff. The competition is always very organized and professional. The judges are very kind, critiques very helpful. The dancers always have a safe and fun environment to dance their hearts out!

What a great competition to watch! They put on a great show with a welcoming atmosphere

I love competing at this competition! The judges give great feedback and advice. Not only that but they have so many opportunities for awards and scholarships. The energy from everyone in the building is one of the many reasons on why I dance as everyone is so kind and wonderful to meet!

WE LOVE BLOOM

Bloom dance competition is our favorite! Everyone is so friendly and it is always super organized!

This is our first year dancing, we competed at both regionals and nationals! Both competitions were organized so well!

Bloom National dance competition venue was great!

This is our first year with Bloom , both regionals and nationals ! We are so happy - great judges who not only judge well, but appreciate the true artistry of dance.

Second year dancing with Bloom and we love it!

Love Bloom!! So fun and friendly!

Everyone there is so awesome! It’s a very friendly environment and a great competition. The judging is fair and Bloom is one of my favorite comps!!

this competition is super fun! the judges are super nice and kind!

Bloom is such a fun experience, our dance studio comes every year and we love it so much!!

Everything is great! BUT, please for the love of God - put out some signs around events to show where to go when driving in.

Great competition! Well run, on time, awards were great and done quickly.

Loved the how organized and efficiently bloom runs their competitions. All staff was friendly and welcoming!

This is our 2nd time at Bloom and we love it! The owner and staff are very friendly and helpful. Their teacher/studio owner VIP lounge is awesome. Very organized and professionally run. Would definitely recommend attending either a regional or Nationals!

First time here, great experience!

i’ve done this competition for 2 years and it’s one of the best ones!

It’s a great environment and fun competition for girls and boys weather your dancing or not!!

This is my fourth competition with them and it is so fun! Everyone is so friendly and I have a great time!!

There are GREAT, fun teams here, and good competition thus far! The judging, in a few areas, has caused questions about criteria. The staff is helpful, the venue is very nice and inside set-up is streamlined and easy to navigate.

We’ve loved our time at bloom - first time at this comp! Very nice lounge for teachers, friendly staff, nice venue.

Well put together !

This is pur first Nationals with Bloom. Everything is running super smoothly. The Bloom personally are friendly and helpful.

This is our first year competing at Bloom and I am very impressed! The staff is super friendly and helpful! Thank you for allowing my daughter to show off her talent and grow!

This was our first time at Bloom and it was excellent. Well run, adequate rehearsal and dressing room space. Overall, a great experience.

Great competition! Well organized and thought out!

This comp is so fun and inclusive! I love how nice everyone is!

This is our second year coming to Bloom Nationals, we are all so excited to be here!

My daughter dances at Starlight Dance Academy and she loved dancing on stage at Bloom! This is such a great competition that we love coming to every year! Thank you for such a great experience!

Starlight dance academy really loves performing at bloom. They are so happy and at ease here and ready to perform without massive confusion, lookin for room to share dressing, wait times, no storage or close parking to unload props. The way it's organized and played out is beneficial to all dance comps...

Great job! Event was clean & organized.

Our studio loved this competition!! Everyone from the staff to the owners and the other studios we had a great experience here!! The judging was very fair and accurate. Love that they only offer Full Bloom Awards to the elite dancers. This encourages studios to place their dancers in the correct category. Another great incentive is that photos and video are not an extra cost to parents! Loved that they offered free snacks, coffee, and drinks to the studio owner/teachers. This is our 2nd time attending this competition and they are always right on schedule and move the awards along fairly quickly while being very generous with the awards. This is a professional competition with all-around positive energy!

The owners are amazing! So responsive to emails, great feedback, the judges are all YPAD certified which is amazing! Love how they do awards that all pins from all dances get picked up by studio directors at the end of awards so much easier. Cute merchandise and has a teacher area that had snacks/drinks which is nice during a long day.

I LOVED this competition! Professional videos and photos were free. They were generous with all their awards. Duets/ trios each got their own trophy for first place. They did not charge for general public admission. The staff was lovely and very organized— with very positive energy. I would love to bring my girls back this upcoming season.
