2025 Solo Dance Series Competitions
The Solo Dance Series was created as a fun, nationwide competitive program for solo dancers that allows them to expand their competitive opportunities, have the opportunity to qualify for a national final and increase the visibility of ice dancing.
Skaters must register for the series April 1 or prior to the skater’s first approved series competition, whichever comes first. A skater’s level is based upon their test level as of the series deadline of April 1 or when the skater submits their registration to participate in the series, whichever date is earlier.
Skaters must compete in at least two competitions and will be ranked based on their highest IJS score. Top finishers in each section for each event will be invited to participate in the National Solo Dance Final.
