A Glimpse into the Experience:
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
"T.O.P Awards is a great opportunity for my daughter to experience different things, to learn from the different master instructors, and just to learn different genres, and to hone her skills as she continues to evolve as a dancer. And to improving herself not only through dance skills, but through being a better person as well, being a better teammate, and being able to communicate better with her class as well as her her dance ensemble team."
–TIM SHUM, parent of Hailey Shum
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
"I feel that T.O.P Awards ranks dancers or evaluates dancers in a more holistic way. I'm really glad that they also consider the presentation, like dance experience, technique, and artistry. They consider all of those along with the master classes. I know that in other competitions, they usually only look at your performance, which I think is less fair than T.O.P because you just have that one moment that you're on stage and you don't know what will happen. But T.O.P really guarantees that they see your whole entire experience as a dancer and how you perform every single day, other than that just one moment on stage."
EMMA ZHANG, student of T.O.P Awards
