I chose this article to help with my documentary. In this article Sacred Ground Dance talks about what competition dance really is. They talk about the pros and cons of competitive dance. They start out by talking about how competitive dance has become more commercialized. They explain that now dancers compete with risqué costumes and inappropriate music because that is what is wins. They explain that competitive dance is now just a big money scam. Studios now a days are only competitive studios and it is very hard to find a studio that isn't competitive. Sacred Ground Dance talks about how winning at competitions has now become the only goal of dancers instead of the actual education of dance. Studios now only care about winning so their studio looks better and eventually this will allow their studio to collect more income. They also explain that the winning dances at competitions are the ones with the most "tricks" instead of the actual dancing. I am using this in my documentary to explain the unfairness of competitive dance and to show that judging now a days isn’t based on dance ability and performance. Its based on costumes and relationships of competition owners and teachers. I think this article is a great asset to my project because it explain another persons opinion on my topic.
