Caltech Ballroom - Rosebud Ball 2019

Rosebud ball is our yearly beginner comp. We've confirmed Sunday, October 27th as the official date of Rosebud Ball 2019! This is a beginner comp for new dancers to get some competition experience without committing to a full day of dancing. We will be offering Newcomer/Bronze/Silver levels for Standard, Smooth, Latin, and Rhythm. We recommend this comp for dancers competing at the Newcomer or Bronze levels. This is also a great opportunity for intermediate and advanced dancers to get experience running a competition! Dancers must be competing at a gold level or higher to judge Rosebud.

If you have any questions, please email Alicia Tirone at atirone@caltech.edu.

Our schedule is still TBD - stay tuned for more updates.
