WWW.CELEBRITYDANCE.COM FAMILY FRIENDLY Celebrity is proud to present an event where teachers and students can express themselves through the many styles of dance. While we promote all styles of dance we strive to keep our events family friendly. At Celebrity we believe that routines that contain inappropriate material should be penalized. We realize that there are many different ways to define what is inappropriate, therefore we have selected to have our Celebrity Judges decide what they believe to be family friendly. If a judge marks on their score sheet that they believe a routine is not appropriate, points will be deducted. The more judges that agree that a routine is not appropriate, the higher the point deduction. We hope that we can all work together to keep all Celebrity Events appropriate for our family viewers. Everyone at Celebrity Worldwide would like to thank you in advance for your hard work, dedication to dance and the Celebrity Experience.
