OFFICIAL NBC SERIES SYNOPSIS: NBC’s new dance competition series “World of Dance” is led by a judging team of extraordinary dance superstars … In partnership with preeminent global dance brand World of Dance, the series brings the world’s elite dancers together to compete in epic battles of artistry, precision and athleticism. Solo dancers will compete against duos and crews in an unlimited range of dance, including hip-hop, popping, locking, tap, ballet, break dancing, ballroom, stomping and more. Handpicked from qualifying events around the nation and thousands of online submissions, competitors are divided into three divisions: Junior (any size act, 17 years old and under), Upper (groups of 1- 4, 18 and older) and Team (groups of 5+, 18 and older). Our panel of experts score the acts using a precise point system developed by World of Dance, using the following criteria: Performance, Technique, Choreography, Creativity and Presentation. The competition consists of five rounds: Qualifiers, Duels, The Cut, Divisional Final and the World Final. In the first four rounds, dancers only compete within their division, but in the World Final – the winner from each division will compete against each other for the grand prize.

DIVISION AGES & SIZES:
JUNIOR – Juniors can be one solo performer, up to groups of 20 dancers. Ages 8 – 16 years old.
UPPER – Uppers can consist of one solo dancer, up to 4 group members. Ages 17 and older.
TEAM – Teams should consist of a range of 5-20 performers. Ages 17 years and older.
