How it works

Dance Boss will see teams of co-workers – from everyday workplaces – with a passion for dancing compete in dance battles for the chance to win a $100,000 pay cheque.

We will first meet our teams in the heats, where they will showcase their preferred dance style with a performance celebrating their careers.

Judges Sharni Vinson, Adam Garcia and Timomatic will give each crew a score out of 30.

Teams are either ‘safe’ or put on ‘notice’ once they dance, depending on whether or not their score is higher than the previous team. Whoever is on ‘notice’ at the end of the night is out of the competition and back to work.

After the heats, teams will go head-to-head in dance battles, before coming together to dance the same routine in a ‘company merger’ – where they will be judged on their skill.

Once again, the team on ‘notice’ will be sent packing.

When the remaining workers have made it through the heats, battles and mergers, only six teams will be left to face each other in the finals to discover which profession becomes the ultimate Dance Boss.

Public servants

The co-workers have backgrounds in different dance styles, which is their strength.
