REGISTRATION

May 6, 2026 is the deadline for ALL registrations for BOTH San Diego and Orlando. Registrations submitted after the deadline will incur full tuition prices. All registrations must be made via our online registration system. Phone, email and mail-in registrations are not accepted.


Dancers are required to register for the entire workshop in order to compete. However, dancers are not required to compete in order to attend the workshop.


Registrations must be paid in full before any final event information is released. This includes event schedules, competition orders, studio packets, scholarship numbers, wristbands, etc.


All registrations are non-refundable. NO EXCEPTIONS.


All registrations are on a first-come, first-served basis. Once capacity has been hit for any ballroom we will not be able to accept additional dancers. We encourage you to register as early as possible to ensure your spot.


We reserve the right to change all rules and regulations at any time without notice.

Note: If you feel like you don’t fall into this category or you have additional questions please reach out to a team member at ndh@amplifiedpro.net.

Space is limited; therefore, registration at the door is not guaranteed.
