The Process Dance Competition and Convention

The Process

The Vision Behind The Process

At DEViATE, we believe that exceptional dance training should be more than just technique—it’s an elevated experience of discovery, growth, and inspiration. The Process is our boutique dance competition and convention built around this philosophy: combining top-tier faculty, limited class sizes, and a nurturing, energizing environment so that each dancer truly shines.

What Makes The Process Unique

Unlike large, impersonal events, The Process Competition and Convention emphasizes connection, individualized feedback, and real artistic growth. Our faculty are chosen not just for their resumes but for their heart and ability to cultivate confidence. Because classes are curated by size and level, dancers receive meaningful attention and feel supported rather than overwhelmed. We want them to leave feeling uplifted, not drained.

Community & Energy

One of the most distinctive features of The Process is the emotional resonance it builds. We often hear from participants and families that the weekend “revives their passion” or feels like a spiritual renewal. That sense of joy, collective momentum, and support transforms the dance convention from merely educational into something truly memorable. Dancers leave wanting more while feeling restored emotionally and artistically, not burned out.

Structure & Flow

We designed this dance competition and convention to immerse dancers in a journey, not just a schedule. From technique classes and workshops to audition labs and creative sessions, every component is intentional. In the audition labs, for example, faculty provide feedback that dancers receive before the weekend ends, ensuring each participant leaves with clear, actionable insight, not just applause. Sessions alternate between fundamentals and creative exploration, giving dancers both structure and space to play.

Who Should Attend

Whether you’re a studio dancer, a pre-professional student, or someone passionate about exploring new creative directions, The Process offers something uniquely rich. If you crave a dance competition and convention that challenges you technically while honoring your individuality, this is the place to be.
