Next year will feature a brand new novice level of competition, the opportunity for teacher only critiques, and a new venue for the national finals. Last season 7,000 people logged onto cast their vote in the the wildly popular Photo of the Week contest on Facebook. Executive Director, Ginny Faubell thinks 2012 will be the best Beyond the Stars tour yet, “We will keep working to provide a positive competition experience for dancers and their families.”

Let’s celebrate the start of another dance season with one more “Your Favorite Photo” contest. You post your favorite action photo, and the first 15 to be posted will be entered into this contest. When we get 15 photos we’ll announce the start and end date of the contest. Good luck to all the photos and thank you in advance to those who participate!
