Hosted By - Courtney Ortiz and Lesley Mealor


In Episode 151 of Making The Impact - A Dance Competition Podcast, we bring you back to one of the hottest topics in the dance industry today - lyrical vs contemporary. IDA judges and dance educators Christina Belinksy and Sam Quinn weigh in on this discussion.


Topics Include:

 The evolution of the styles and what that means for the competitive dance world  The importance of music selection in choosing which style of dance to present Why it can sometimes feel like today's young dancers don't think lyrical is "cool" - and why we do!
