A brand new dance competition that is bringing back the performance to the stage. We are excited to bring the first dance competition to the region of the Monterey Peninsula. With a versatile and extensive dance knowledge, our competition will bring the personal experience every dancer deserves to dance in!
My name is Stevie McKim-Kirmil. I am the Founder/CEO of the RockStar Movement. I too, am a studio owner. I wanted to start a dance competition in our local area of the Monterey Peninsula.
Having over 20 years experience in the dance industry and watching the revolving door of change, I wanted to bring the performance back to the stage. I want accountability within judging during the competition. I want the competition to be fair, welcoming, educational and fun!
I look forward to meeting everyone on February 10, 2024.
