Annual Meeting & Clinic

Every September, coaches/directors of member teams are invited to come together with Showcase America staff and judges to learn from one another and from leaders in the dance field. Additionally, members provide review and input into the Rules & Regulations.


During the Annual Meeting, dancers are invited to attend a dance clinic where they can learn from top talent in the dance field, participating in master classes, technique and learning combinations in various genres. 

​

This past year we had more than 50 staff/judges and coaches/directors join us for a full day. We discussed our approach to Awards, updates to rules and regulations, had a session on injury prevention in dancers provided by a Cincinnati Children's expert physician, jointly participated in judges' training by Jessica W., lead for the UDA college nationals judging panel, choreography and show design discussion and more. An optional CPR certification class was held immediately after the meeting.

​

Mark your calendars now for September 27, 2026 at Centerville High School. An RSVP form with additional details for both the meeting and the clinic will be sent through our mailing list later this summer. Interested in learning more? Reach out to info@scau.org to join our distribution list.

Note: Participation in at least one regional solo competition is required before competing at the Showcase of Stars. See Rules & Regulations for additional requirements and details.

Showcase of Stars



Our premier event for soloists—a two-day experience where each participant is celebrated for their courage, performance and heart. The event includes a preliminary solo competition, evening gown presentation and junior/senior contestants compete in an additional  compulsory event. Finalists re-compete their solos and all contestants perform in the final gala. Special judges' awards are given in addition to placing a court for each age and skill level.


 The Showcase of Stars is more than a national final. It’s an annual event that creates and sustains friendships-focused on each participant’s individual growth journey.
