FORMAT
This is a social dance competition. In the preliminary rounds, leaders and followers are randomly paired together and dance to songs of different tempos, but are judged individually. In the finals, leaders and followers are randomly paired up, but will be judged as a couple as they dance in spotlight format. Judges will value how each couple connects to the music and to the partner.
