Similar to Dancing with the Stars, Dance for a Chance pairs dancers with instructors, who work together to create a dance routine, pick accompanying music and practice over the summer before competing in October.
At the same time, the dancers are working within their personal and professional networks – largely via social media – to raise awareness and funds for Youth Emergency Services.
Dance for a Chance 2025 pairs the art of dance with movie magic under this year’s theme, “Lights, Camera, Dance!” Dancers and instructors will incorporate music, dance moves and costumes into their performances inspired by one of many blockbuster hits from over the years. Attendees are also invited and encouraged to dress up as characters from their favorite flicks.
