Especially for the World Championships, an official song has been created – and of course, it comes with a dance. With the Dance Challenge, we invite dancers to create their own choreography and take part in a competition. Join in, submit your dance, and become part of the Artistic Gymnastics World Championships!
How does it work?
Choose one standout fragment of your dance, with a maximum length of 20 seconds. For example, the chorus or another recognizable moment that grabs attention and works well on social media. Upload both your full choreography and the fragment via the button below.
We will share this clip on our social channels to inspire others to take part as well. Who knows – your dance might even go viral.
For Whom?
Everyone can take part – all levels and all dance styles
From age 7 and up
Groups of at least 4 people
What can you win?
Get visibility through the official World Championships channels and show your performance to the whole of the Netherlands.
And get the chance to experience the World Championships gymnastics up close with your dance group.
Join in!
Deadline: August 16, 2026
