This is a new competition to Killer Diller Ball! As Dawn Hamption says, all you have to do is "Let the Spirit Move You."

This competition is all about just dancing as a soloist to whatever music is playing - bust out your blackbottom, cakewalk, blues, charleston, snake hips and other jazz steps…. Just dance to the music and let you body be another instrument in the song!
