Forever (the concept)
Forever is a international dance platform presenting a new series of dance programmes, unique in the world:
House Dance Forever, Ballet Forever, Hiphop Forever, Bboy Forever, Popping Forever and Juste Debout.
Forever wants to contribute to the full development of urban dance as a form of performing arts.
THE BATTLE
Out of all the dancers, 12 will be chosen by the judges. Out of 12, 6 will go through to the next round, also chosen by the kings. Out of 6, 3 will be chosen by themselves. It's all a matter of honesty, honour and respect to admit when your opponent is a better dancer; if no dancer admits his/her defeat, the crowd will decide who's the winner. The 3 finalists will each choose a king, a judge to battle against . 3 will remain, then 2, then 1. The winner has one more opponent to defeat before claiming victory: the mystery judge.
This is a world première so you'll need to step up your game to battle the kings. If judges come out as winners, then there will be a judge battle.
In preparation for the battle you can participate in workshops provided by the KINGS
FOREVER is meant to elevate the dance culture in Holland and Europe.
Respect is King
One Love, one spirit, one nation
