Show Format
The contest began with sixteen competitors (eight boys, eight girls) drawn from public auditions. Every week they have to prepare a choreography assigned by the program with the artistic help of two top choreographers, Nick Florez and Maria Torres. They mostly dance in interchangeable boy-girl pairs, but as the episodes go on they also dance in same-sex duos or groups. The choreographies can be of very different styles: jazz dance, street dance, latin dance, or fusion.
After the contestants perform live on the dancefloor, a professional panel (composed by Cristina Hoyos, Belén Lobo and Ramón Oller) evaluates their work individually and nominates four of them for eviction. The nominees get a minute each to dance freely to a music they have chosen. The audience decides by televoting who of the nominees proceed in the contest: the two contestants with most votes are saved.
