JUDGES CHOICE Judging art, creativity, and dance is innately an emotional and personal choice - yet as judges we are asked to remove all personal thought and preference from our scores and base our decision solely on the score sheet criteria. DX has given us an incredible opportunity as judges to finally recognize the pieces we connect with personally. This award is much more meaningful to me than any I have had the pleasure to give out in all my years as a dance judge and I look forward to every DX event because of it.
