Competition Ready is a complete software platform for running dance competitions — covering studio and dancer registration, routine entries, judging and scoring, scheduling and program books, payments, and automated communications, all in one connected system for directors and studios alike.

Two audiences, one platform: competition directors who need full control over how their event is configured, scored, and scheduled, and dance studios who need a fast, guided way to register dancers and routines across every competition they attend.

No. Competition Ready runs entirely in your web browser — no downloads, installs, or IT setup required for directors, studios, or judges. It works on desktop, tablet, and mobile.

The studio-facing portal currently supports English, Spanish, and French, with more languages planned. Studios can choose their preferred language, and competitions can author their own content — like waivers and announcements — to be shown in a studio's preferred language.

Yes. We support importing your existing studios, dancers, and related records so you're not starting from a blank slate. Reach out to our team to discuss what you're migrating from and the best path for your event.

Absolutely. Divisions, age groups, routine levels, categories, pricing schedules (including early-bird and regular pricing), entry limits, and award structures are all fully configurable to match exactly how your competition is run — no hardcoded assumptions about your rules.

Judges score digitally from any tablet or laptop. The platform supports multiple judging sessions per entry (for callback or repeat rounds), custom scoring rubrics, judge comments, and penalty flags — with results calculated automatically the moment scoring is complete.

Yes — this is a core part of how the platform is built. Every competition runs on its own dedicated database, so your studios, pricing, schedules, and results are never mixed with any other event on the platform.

Yes. You can configure automated email reminders (balance due, unsigned waivers, upcoming deadlines, schedule updates) and bulk SMS messaging, all branded with your competition's own logo and colors.

Studios can pay online, with support for partial payments split across multiple entries or events. You can issue coupons and credits, and see a real-time, auditable balance for every studio connected to your event.

No. You create one studio account and connect it to every competition on the platform that you compete at — your dancer roster, staff, and music library carry over, so you never re-enter the same information twice.

From your studio portal, you can add and manage your full dancer and staff roster, then register routines through a guided entry flow that shows your running cost as you go — so your invoice is never a surprise.

Yes. The studio portal is fully responsive and designed to work just as well backstage on a phone as it does in your studio office on a desktop.

Convention sign-ups happen right in your studio portal — register your dancers and staff, and the platform can automatically assign rooms based on age and level according to the competition's own rules.

Every account supports multi-factor authentication — including SMS codes, authenticator apps, and passkey/biometric login — in addition to a securely hashed password that is never stored or transmitted in plain text.

No. Each competition's registration data, pricing, and results live in their own dedicated database. Your studio's own roster of dancers and staff is shared across the competitions you choose to connect with — nothing else is shared without your action.

Yes. Both competition and studio accounts support role-based access, so you can give teammates exactly the level of access they need — from full control down to view-only access for specific dancers.

Contact our team to request a demo. We'll walk through your competition's specific divisions, pricing, and schedule, and help you get your event fully configured before registration opens.

If your competition director has already added Competition Ready, you'll receive an invitation to create your studio account. If you're not sure, reach out to us and we'll point you in the right direction.

Yes — our team is available to support directors through the registration period and on competition day itself. Get in touch to discuss support options for your event.
