TBA Dancers

Same-proficiency TBA partnerships will not be judged differently than other pre-arranged partnerships. So, if you find a TBA partner, please give us a heads up by reaching out to clubballroomdancing@duke.edu, or telling us day-of when you check in at the front desk!

In mixed-proficiency TBA partnerships, only the lower-proficiency dancer will be judged. These pairings will be made as needed on October 19th.
