Judges
The judging panel at IDC has been pre-screened and selected based on their training, professional experience and teaching knowledge. We believe that a well-balanced judge must not only have a long list of accomplishments but also understand how to coach and mentor the next generation. We strive to rotate our judges for each event and are constantly adding new talent! This provides you the opportunity to enter the same routines multiple times with a fresh set of eyes.
