Contest Descriptions

This contest requires teams of two people working together to remember various commands. The most basic part is that one side is the “Coke” side and the other is “Pepsi.” When the Coke command is given, the Coke side runs to the Pepsi side. When the Pepsi command is given, the Pepsi side runs to the Coke side. Various other commands are given to memorize. The last team to complete the task of the command is out.

Everyone gets into one large circle and holds hands to make the circle connect. We place hula hoops in between some of the people in the circle.

When the music stops, whoever the hula hoop is on at that time is called out.

Every dance floor has 4 corners and we use them in this fast paced contest. We number each corner 1 to 4. As the DJ plays some upbeat music, everyone involved walks in a giant circle in the middle. When the music stops (abruptly) everyone must quickly choose a corner of the dance floor. Once everyone is in a corner we choose a number out of a hat and whoever is in the corner of the number pulled is out.

The entire dance floor or at least most of it is covered in bubble wrap. Party-goers then stand next to the bubble wrap, on the edge of the dance floor. When the DJ plays music, everyone needs to jump on the bubble wrap, but when the music stops, if you are still standing on the bubbles, then you are called out.

*This contest requires client to purchase bubble wrap, ask for details.

There are SO many great songs that can be played at a party, but unfortunately there isn’t time for them all. Doing our famous “Dance Contest” we will hand out prizes to guests as they adjust their moves to the music. However, the songs are being changed constantly to keep everyone on their toes! This is a great way to play a lot of requests in a short amount of time.

So you think you can dance? Well, even if you can’t you’ll look like you can with a dance off. We will split the crowd into a couple groups and have one of our dancers helping the group come up with a routine that should be fun and funny all at once.

When the music is playing, you need to be moving and dancing. When the music stops, you must freeze in place.

All teens are in a circle on the dance floor. We generally start with 1 or 2 “couples” who can be chosen by the guest of honor or by the emcee. A slow song is played and these couples dance for roughly 10 seconds. The emcee then says, “Snowball” and that means each person currently dancing invites a new person to dance with them. This process repeats throughout the entire song.

The guys create an inside circle. The ladies create an outside circle around the guys. Our DJ plays some upbeat music. Each circle is walking in opposite directions to the music until the music stops. When the music stops, the guys face out and the girls face inwards. Whoever is facing you is your dance partner to a slow song for about 30 seconds. Then repeat.

The ladies put each put one shoe in a pile on the dance floor while the guys face away. When the emcee gives the cue, the guys will turn around and grab a shoe. Whoever the shoe belongs to is who dances together to a slow song.
