- THE JOY OF DANCING! -

The SA Dance School Championships is one of South Africa's oldest, largest, and most contemporary dance events and competitions for dance schools and young dancers. Held annually this event brings together over 5,000 dancers, aged 3 and up, to perform and compete in front of family and friends. Participants showcase their talents in different age categories on stages celebrating their passion for dance over several weeks.

The goal of the SA Dance School Championships is to provide novice dancers with the experience of performing on stage and to offer amateur dancers the opportunity to compete against their peers for top honours.

To participate in the SA Dance School Championships, dance schools must enter at least 10 students. This event is designed for dance schools and dancers from beginners to advanced, rather than just the top performers. First-year participants may request an exemption from this rule.

The SA Dance School Championship utilises a modern online system to manage the competition.
