CELEBRITY DANCE COMPETITIONS

May 02 2023

My daughter has been attending Celebrity Conventions & Competitions for three years and every time we attend we are blown away by all the little details. Every dancer is truly treated like a celebrity from cute free shirts, lunch at conventions, positive encouraging teachers, judges & staff, personal connections, photo op backdrops, the dance down, high energy-the list goes on. We are grateful to get to experience Celebrity Dance and can’t wait for next time.

Our studio just attended Celebrity this past weekend in Arizona. Once again, another amazing competition! Our dancers truly were treated like a Celebrity. Every dancer is handed a cute free Celebrity shirt at check in. The Celebrity store and all the fun photo backdrops made the entire lobby of the theater a fun social hang out. The Vibe all weekend was positive, upbeat and just so much FUN! An added touch was Celebrity treated studio owners and their teachers to dinner on Saturday evening and on Sunday morning they treated us to our favorite Starbucks. Just so many extra special touches. The staff is always so kind and they make each dancer feel so special. As a studio owner I highly recommend attending a Celebrity event! We made memories to last a lifetime! Cannot wait for Nationals! Thank you Celebrity!!!

Celebrity has been a competition my studio and I have been going to for years. Every time I find myself enjoying it more and more. It allows each dancer to find their own strengths and really grow their love and passion for dance.

Celebrity is very organized, and everything is well thought out. The staff is friendly, and my dancers love all the extras like the free tee and other cute merch, the Dance Down, the social media involvement, all the fun backdrops to take pictures and the fact that we have access to pictures, videos and critiques after the event. This is a perfect way to engage the little dancers and help them to improve. This competition is one of our favorites.

To Whom It May Concern I just contacted the Celebrity office in regards our registration for Celebrity Phoenix Convention and was directed to Miss Olivia Gregg. I have owned and operated my dance studio for 29 years and I have to compliment your team member Olivia on being so kind and helpful with all my questions. So many competition and convention companies have no one working in their office. It sometimes takes days to get a response from other companies. Your entire Celebrity team is incredible and I appreciate all you do for me as a Studio Owner. We look forward to Celebrity Phoenix Convention. And please let Miss Olivia Gregg know she did an excellent job in answering my questions. Sincerely Kimberly Lewis Owner Dance Studio 111

We LOVE Celebrity! We attended Convention for the first time last fall in Minneapolis with roughly 20 of our dancers and had an absolute blast! One our dancers was selected for Junior Crew which landed us here at Nationals. We took our Solos, Duets and Trios to regionals in March which was a favorite for all of our dancers. At both the Convention and Competition Drew and the Celebrity staff spoiled the Instructors/Owners. There are so many smiling faces helping out at any time, incredible Instructors, judging staff and Drew, Elizabeth and Jenna all have gone out of their way to make sure all of our questions have been answered. I love all the fine details- from the small programs, to the free videos and photos, to having everything clearly marked on where to be and all the extras they offer for the teachers. Lunches, Dinners and Bar Kiki! As both a studio owner and dance parent I would and do I highly recommend Celebrity. The atmosphere is positive, inspiring, and all around a class act. Having a dancer here for Junior Crew has been a wonderful experience as well. They really do treat them like Celebrities. I love their positive feedback and push to make each dancer try their best. It has been fun to see the Junior Crew bond from all over the US. Overall I highly recommend Celebrity and cannot wait to now bring our entire Comp Team of over 150 dancers in the fall!

My daughter is 16 and has been competing with Celebrity Dance since she was 6 or 7 years old. Celebrity has always stood out with such friendly staff who are so polite and supportive towards any and all who attend their events. We love that their regional competitions include a dance down! Celebrity conventions are also so much fun with amazing teachers who always leave my daughter feeling inspired and wanting more.

Rated the comp from last Spring, which was great at the height of COVID, but then went to the convention this past fall... not what we expected. As a g-parent of a TEEN, our dancer does not want us to watch, but we snuck in a quite a few times - always the same dancers up front and being called out. I understand COVID precautions, so teachers may not want to walk around the room, but where everybody is suppose to be treated as a Celebrity, should not different dancers be called out? Only one teacher stayed on the stage to see dancers in the back. It is IMPOSSIBLE to see dancers in the back of the room from the front of the room on floor, even if you are 6 feet tall! Just real dis-appointing, because we too witnessed dancers literally pushing other dancers to be up front and then those pushers were getting all the recognition - so sad how the dance world seems to reward and promote ugliness. :( Our dancer almost always takes the back of the room, because she refuses to be around the pushiness and she likes to have room to dance, plus having a medical condition she likes to have the extra room, but being in the back and the fact that she pulled her solo from the convention competition (for medical reason - NOT COVID realated) seemed to leave her completely un-noticed and she felt defeated and punished. She usually enjoys Celebrity, and at least gets one or two calls out, but this time, after 3 days - not one call out or recognition - it was ALL the same girls that were UP FRONT!! We have never seen it like that - so sad. COVID is not an excuse for laziness - and dancers should not feel unnoticed and defeated because they choose the back - SOMEONE has to dance in the back!

My daughter has been attending celebrity conventions and competitions for the past 3 years, since 5 years old. This has always been a positive environment, great teachers and content. My daughter loves the special attention to detail from the pink carpet, backdrops for pics, check in bracelets to being provided with lunch. No other convention or competition does this. Their trophies change and they keep it new and fresh. I know my money is always well spent at Celebrity!

Just got home from the convention and have to say the convention was a NIGHTMARE! The checkin took 4ever! Line was all the way down the hotel and took us 1hr to get through registration. Then when we got to registration they ran out of the CONVNETION BOOK/schedule. The schedule is hard to read: not all parents can read size 4 font printed on a dark purple and dark blue background! COME ON! I had to take a picture with my phone and blow it up. Part of the convention price includes lunch and Sunday's lunch did not include any protein! The convention itself - the only one we have been too where it’s encouraged that you push your way to the front to be seen. Only one teacher walked around the room to see all the dancers. We all know those dancers that push their way to the front, just to be seen. Well at Celebrity, if your dancer actually stays at the back so they have room to move they will in no way be seen or have a chance at getting called out! Witnessed it first hand. Saw some amazing dancers in the back of the room not one was called out. The same dancers, over and over in the front only were called out! Unless your dancer is pushy and doesn’t care about dance space, please avoid this convention! I hope our studio does not go back!

We are so sorry to hear about your experience! We have not heard these sentiments from anyone else, but we definitely appreciate your feedback! Regarding Celebrity Check-in: We offer multiple time windows, throughout the weekend, for dancers to check-in. Unfortunately, our computer system did go down one time that weekend. With many dancers checking in at once, the technical difficulty set us back. We worked diligently to get it back up and running, and dancers through the line as quickly as we were able, while trying to keep everyone's spirits up! Regarding the Celebrity Souvenir Program: Celebrity Convention Programs are complimentary. All information in the Celebrity Program is emailed out in the Welcome Packet, for anyone with a Celebrity Online Account. Alternatively, all program information, including faculty bios, the schedule, and more can be found online. Our half page programs help cut down on the amount of paper used to produce complimentary programs, for hundreds of dancers, at every Celebrity Convention. If you view the program online, not only do you help Celebrity save on paper, but you can magnify the program to a size suitable for you. While some of our stock was misplaced by hotel staff for about 15 minutes, they were recovered and we had them available the rest of the weekend. We also had Celebrity Crew Members walk around the venue, and pass out programs to any dancer who looked like they didn’t get one during that time. We are sorry that you were inconvenienced by both of those hiccups. Regarding Celebrity Lunches: Lunches are included in the dancer’s convention pass. Even with lunches included, Celebrity Dance is often comparable or lower in cost to other dance conventions. While we aim to satisfy everyone, we are unable to satisfy all preferences and dietary restrictions. After meeting with a child nutritionist, and after receiving many requests for vegetarian options, we made the decision to provide a lunch with meat one day, and without meat on another. The menu at Celebrity Conventions varies slightly from event to event, based on the hotel’s options. A typical menu consists of a child-friendly entrée, a fruit or vegetable side dish, a dessert, and basic beverages. On our website, we encourage dancers to bring snacks and other food options if they have dietary restrictions or special requests. Regarding our Celebrity Faculty: Due to the current pandemic, it has been recommended that our faculty members practice social distancing. For some teachers, their comfortability may be staying a bit more distanced than others. At Celebrity, we try to honor everyone’s individual choices. While this practice is not common under normal circumstances, or what we would prefer to do, it is a measure that helps keep our faculty healthy for future events. Even with those recommendations, we still have plenty of Celebrity Paparazzi footage of our faculty members engaging with the students in various manners. From walking through the rooms, to giving direct feedback, to calling out dancers for examples. In the past, our faculty has encouraged dancers to move about the room, change places, come to the front if they’ve been in the back, etc. All of our teachers are vetted, selected for their character (of course, in addition to their teaching ability), and we can assure you, they all have the dancer’s best interests at heart. If you have any specific comments, on any of our faculty members, please feel free to email celebrity@dancecelebrity.com so we can address your concerns appropriately. Our goal at Celebrity Dance is to help make every dancer feel like the Celebrity they are! We hope your dancer found some enjoyment in our incredible lineup of teachers, the free Celebrity Souvenir t-shirt they received, the complimentary photos & videos for all solos, the Celebrity Show, the included lunched, the Celebrity energy and spirit, and all of the other special touches that help set Celebrity apart from the rest! We hope you’ll give us another shot in the future, and we wish you and your dancer the best of luck in your future dance endeavors!

This was my first convention as a parent, and my daughter's first convention as a dancer (Minneapolis). She was in the Junior's room and we have nothing but good things to say about the weekend! The routines that the teachers taught were perfect for the age group and skill level, the teachers themselves were amazing, staff was great, we loved the setup of the venue, and as a cherry on top - my daughter won a partial scholarship for next year's convention! Thank you Celebrity for an amazing weekend and we can't wait to come back next year!

Very well run and efficient competition. There is no reason to be concerned about COVID, because Celebrity has very large and clean dressing rooms. The stage is cleaned after so much time is passed - even if it is during your studio's dance block. Also, the check in system is organized! Truly, the entire competition is well organized - videos are posted when they say they will be posted and so are the awards ceremonies. Celebrity is very professional... so sure you will not be disappointed! :)

Celebrity always does it right; even with new rules and regulations, they went above and beyond to make the dancers and faculty feel comfortable and special during their event. I appreciate that they genuinely take the time to have conversations with the teacher and dancers, and they never skimp out on handing tangible awards for our performers. I know that's not the main goal of a competition, but it's nice for dancers to walk away with something after such a challenging year. Thank you, Celebrity, for being a very well-run competition with fantastic leadership, staff, and judges. We appreciate you so very much!

My daughter danced in the San Antonio competition this past weekend with Juleigh Holley’s School of Dance. This was our first time at a Celebrity Competition and it was a great experience! We loved how the staff greeted us and showed us where to go, professionalism of the competition, and having access to critiques and photos so soon after the event. Thank you for all your hard work that allows our kids to continue doing what they love in these weird times.
