FLOOR PLAY (1-2 people)

Show us your most seductive, fluid and seamless play on the floor. Floor Play is your expression of smooth, sensual and beautiful transitions with your body using primarily the stage floor. You are allowed to use the poles as prop as long as you make sure it isn’t the center of your performance. (For example: Use the pole for transitioning from laying/sitting to standing and vice versa. Handstands. Swirls on your knees around the pole.) You are not allowed to climb or do tricks ON the pole. You must ALWAYS have one contact point on the floor (standing on the floor is to have contact with the floor). If you were to do tricks WITHOUT floor contact you will receive a five point deduction (-5) by the head judge. You are allowed to use the poles as prop for a maximum of 30 seconds of your routine, if you exceed this time limit you will be disqualified. The same rules apply if you are to use a chair as prop.
