“DX All American takes competition dance to the next level. It has pushed me to be a better dancer, student, and community member all while building important life skills. This competition is the ultimate challenge and Xtreme fun!”
ASHLEY JELKEN, All American Candidate
“The DX All American competition prepared my daughter for applying to colleges AND auditioning for her current college team. Great overall experience. Sign up!”
“One of my favorite parts about the DX competition is the All American Scholarship program. It includes writing an essay, doing an interview, completing an application, seeking letters of recommendation, submitting a transcript, and performing their dance solo. I am so impressed that a dance competition puts so much value in building these young people into strong adults by valuing these skills”
