How To Choose Competitions?

There  are  a  few  essential  points  that  will  help  you  choose  competitions in pole dancing.

  1. Geography

Determine  the  amount  you  are  prepared  to  spend.  Based  on  the  budget,  infer  your  readiness  to  go  to  another  city  or  country  for  a  competition.

Long  travels  entail  large  spending  on  fare,  board  and  lodging.

  1. Types of  competitions   

Check  for  your  category  at  the  championship.  Some  events  are  intended  exclusively  for  amateurs  or,  conversely,  professionals.

  1. Site and  pylons 

Find  out  the  championship’s  venue  (a  club,  entertainment  centre,  theatre),  the  size  of  the  scene,  the  floor  coating,  type  of  pylons,  their  height,  fastenings  and  a  distance  between  them.

Maybe,  some  of  these  won’t  suit  you,  for  example,  a  small  scene  or  a  podium  pylon.

  1. Referee panel   

If  you  wish  to  receive  an  adequate  appraisal  of  your  performance,  the  referee  panel  should  be  composed  of  people  whose  opinion  you  trust  or  those  who  are  well  versed  in  the  category  they  judge.

 

  1. Judging system,  rules 

Read  the  rules  carefully  and  familiarize  yourself  with  the  judging  system.  Some  points  may  displease  you,  for  example,  the  mandatory  use  of  two  pylons.

Also,  it  is  essential  how  the  participants  are  evaluated,  i.e.  the  system  of  evaluation  you  well  understand.

  1. Organizer

Look  for  references  about  the  work  of  the  organizer  and  the  events  they  arrange.

Read  about  the  previous  championships  and  find  out  if  any  complaints  had  been  made  against  the  organization,  timing  and  other  important  points.

  1. Filming and  photography 

Find  out  the  championship’s  prize  fund  or  what  prizes  the  participants  will  struggle  for.

Note  that  some  competitions  entitle  to  participation  without  selection  in  other,  larger  events  or  just  have  a  higher  status  and  make  you  recognizable.

Be  attentive  in  choosing  the  championship  you  are  going  to  participate  in  if  you  wish  to  enjoy  your  performance  on  the  scene.
