What is USPC?

  • U.S. Pole Champions is a pole dance competition open to all persons ages 18+. There are two divisions, Amateur and Professional.

  • This competition focuses on execution of skills and showmanship. All styles of pole are welcome. Whatever your style is, bring it to your highest level!

  • Ten finalists per division will be chosen by our video judging panel. Applicants will be judged for the division they submit for. The judges may make a division recommendation if an applicant is clearly a better fit for a different division.

  • At USPC, we believe competitors deserve experienced and knowledgeable judges. All USPC video submissions and live performances will be judged by pole industry leaders. Judges are financially compensated for their time.

  • All applicants will receive a scorecard and written feedback from the video judging panel. Finalists will be notified two weeks after application submissions close.

  • First through third placements in each division, will be awarded at the live competition as well as superlative awards for Best Costume, and Audience Choice.
