Kat Deluna Wants To Know... Are You "Unstoppable"?

Dancer Universe has teamed up yet again with United States Tournament of Dance (USTD)  to create another killer opportunity for young dancers-a FREE contest that gives aspiring performers the chance to tell the world why they are "Unstoppable!" Inspired by the song "Unstoppable" by hit recording artist Kat Deluna, this contest seeks to find dancers who are confident, determined, and most importantly, won't let anything stand in the way of their dreams.

Entering is simple-all you have to do is submit a short paragraph explaining why you're "Unstoppable."

Contest winner will be determined through a fan web voting process hosted by www.danceruniverse.com and will be announced on July 18, 2009 at the USTD Nationals in Atlantic City, NJ. Kat will award the prize personally, which includes a trophy, Kat Deluna Prize Pack, private meet and greet and photo. She will also be performing LIVE, so you won't want to miss it!

Wow

This is going to be a good time. I've never seen a competition do something like this before.

I agree!

And I like that it gives dancers another way to express themselves artistically... many great dancers are also great writers! :-)
