ID TITLE
Where Artistry Becomes Leadership.
Where Presence Becomes Power.
The ID Dance Title Competition celebrates dancers who don’t just perform, they lead, inspire, and elevate everyone around them. ID Title offers a premium platform to showcase artistry, authenticity, confidence, and leadership beyond traditional adjudication.Competitors step into an experience that highlights performance quality, presence, storytelling, and character, but the true value of Title is bigger than awards: every dancer gains clarity, confidence, and a deeper sense of purpose as an artist and emerging leader. When you enter the Title division, you’re not just competing — you’re stepping into your own unique artistry.

Through improv, dancers can stand out not just for what they do, but for who they are.
This is their chance to showcase individuality, vulnerability, and creativity, to explore what makes them unique as artists.

This is where artistry becomes leadership.
