Knock dancers compete in competitions all over Canada throughout the year.  They compete with other dancers in their age group and level of dance.  Those levels are divided into: Beginner; Advanced Beginner; Novice; Prizewinner; Preliminary Championship; and Open Championship.

Prelim and Open level dancers compete at the Western Canadian Oireachtas every year in hopes of qualifying for Nationals and Worlds!

Here are some pictures of our dancers at competitions.  

Notice the extravagant costumes and the curly hair, some hair is curled, others are wearing wigs.

Boys of course do not curl their hair, but do have tidy hair and wear Knock School shirts. When boys move up to Preliminary competitions they wear different colored shirts, ties and vests.

Girls wear Knock School dresses until they move up to Preliminary competitions where they wear solo dresses (the very colorful and sparkly ones.)
