Group Choreography Contest
In addition to the freestyle competitions, HDI also plays host to a group choreography contest that showcases the talents of groups within the house dance community. Groups are scored on a mathematical scale by a panel of judges using the following criteria: (1) musicality / rhythm; (2) vocabulary; (3) originality / creativity; (4) charisma; (5) synchronicity / transitions; (6) staging / blocking; (7) costume design. The winner of the Group Choreography Contest in 2008 was an all-female group from Osaka, Japan called “Soul Flower”.
