About the Championships

The International Open Modern Jive Championship is an open modern jive dance competition for everyone on the modern jive scene. It features multiple categories catering to dancers of all levels, ensuring that everyone, from beginners to advanced dancers, has the opportunity to participate and showcase their dancing skills. This inclusive approach encourages dancers of varying abilities to engage in the event, which has contributed to its success and popularity over the years.

The competition is judged by well-respected individuals within the dance community, known for their expertise and fairness in evaluating performances. Additionally, the event is hosted by Kerrin & Luci who have received recognition and awards for their contributions to the dance world, adding to the prestige and credibility of the competition. 

Following the competition, there is an opportunity for everyone to unwind and enjoy themselves during a 2 room Freestyle. This post-competition dance provides a space for everyone to socialise, dance, and have fun, creating a lively atmosphere that continues well into the night, with festivities concluding around midnight. This aspect of the event adds to the overall experience, allowing individuals to further connect with others in the dance community and celebrate their shared passion for Modern Jive.

Whether you compete, freestyle, spectate or are just there to soak up the atmosphere and cheer on your friends, you’re guaranteed to have a fantastic time!
