America’s Ballroom Challenge dedicates one full hour to each major style of competitive ballroom dance: American Smooth, American Rhythm, International Standard, and International Latin. The first four episodes begin with the six finalist couples in each style competing as a group, performing the required dances in their category. Then, the dancers have a real opportunity to shine, performing a show dance solo with all eyes on them alone. Each program ends with the crowning of one couple, the champions in that style of dance.

The series kicks off with the American Smooth and American Rhythm divisions. Finalists in each style compete first as a group, with all the dancers on the floor at once, as judges gauge their mastery of the required dances. Then each couple has a chance to shine: a showdance solo with all eyes on them alone. In the end, two couples are crowned champions and advance to the grand finale.

The second hour is a study in contrasts – from flowing gowns and graceful waltzes of the classical Standard Division to the sensational footwork and provocative moves of the sizzling International Latin style. Find out which two couples are crowned champions and advance to the grand finale.

The grand finale! Four championship couples compete across dances styles to determine a single winning couple. Each duo performs two pull-out-all-the-stops solos, limited only by their own imaginations. At the end of the grueling competition, the judges name one of these couples "America’s Best."
