Dit was voor de DansSport een reden om ook in onze tak van sport een Kür in te stellen en daar ook Wereldkampioenschappen in te gaan organiseren.
De Kür discipline, bij de DansSport "Show Dance" genoemd wordt nu georganiseerd in de Standaard- en in de Latijns Amerikaanse dansen.

Waarom is de Kür ook voor de DansSport zo attractief?
De dansers kiezen hun eigen muziek uit, de kostuums aangepast aan hun Kür, men geeft een eigen interpretatie aan hun dansen en dansensamenstelling m.a.w. er zijn meer vrijheden mogelijk.
Het paar kan zich (nog) beter artistiek profileren!
Sinds 1989 bestaat de WK Kür, ingesteld door de W.D.& D.S.C.
Voor speciale disciplines gelden natuurlijk ook speciale regels!.

Time The time of the show music must be between 2.45 and 3.30 minutes. The time limit must not be exceeded under any circumstances. A time limit exceeded leads to direct disqualification. |

The Showdance Competitions |
| 54.1 |
Invigilator For every Showdance Competition or any competition where Showdance is a part of a competition there must be an invigilator, who has the task to watch over the rules, and has the right and the duty to disqualify couples violating the rules. The Dance Sport Executive Board must approve all invigilators for International Showdance Competitions and Mr Svein Rotvold is the Chairman of the invigilators. To assist the invigilator a videoman equipped with a camera, videoscreen and a video with slow and still picture must be provided. |
| 54.2 |
The Competition Conditions including lighting must be the same for all couples throughout the show including entrance and exit. Preceding every Showdance Competition, or those where Showdance is involved, there must be an official rehearsal, where all the couples have a reasonable time to test their show on the actual floor where the competition is taking place. For the rehearsal to music the sound engineer of the competition must be present and helpful. To attend the rehearsal is an obligation for all couples, the chairman of adjudicators, the invigilator and the videoman. All shows will be filmed under rehearsal and during the show to be used only as information/proof of rule violations. In the case of this, under the rehearsal, the invigilator must give the respective couple notice, so they have a chance to adjust their show for the competition. Violation of the rules in the actual competition leads to direct disqualification. Performances that are against common moral taste or on religious subjects in any other than the original religious idea have to be banned from performing in the competition through the invigilator. Order of dancing shall be drawn by ballot, at which all the competitors or chosen representatives have a right to be present. In competitions where the show is an additional dance, the order will be drawn in two sections:
During entrance, performance and exit the couple must be alone on the floor. |
| 54.3 |
Marking System Two marks will be given for each show throughout the whole competition, and will be based on adjudicating each performing couple individually and not to be judged by comparison: A. Technical Merit * The technical quality of the dancing; B. Artistic Impression * Choreography Is it used to express the music to its fullest extent? Is it using the theme of the music if there is any? Are there clever and musically related ideas used in the choreography? * Originality of the idea Related to music Related to choreography to the particular music. Related to theme ideas (choreographically, performance, choice of dress) * Entertainment related to the public The range of the marks must be from 5.0 up to 6.0 as the best mark. Two couples can have the same marking. The two sets of marks will be added together and a placing allocated to each couple from each adjudicator with the highest total receiving first place, etc. ie. each adjudicator's combined marks converted into first to sixth place. In the event of a tie on the adiudicators' marking sheet. the better A-Note decides the result. In the case of visual marking, only the A and B-Notes will be shown. In the event of a tie, the Skating System shall be used. |
