A judge stands in the foreground.
In competition ballroom dancers are judged by diverse criteria such as connection, frame, posture, speed, timing, proper body alignment, proper usage of weight/ankles/feet, and grooming.

Judging in a performance-oriented sport is inevitably subjective in nature, and controversy and complaints by competitors over judging placements are not uncommon.
The scorekeepers—called scrutineers—will tally the total number recalls accumulated by each couple through each round until the finals, when the Skating system is used to place each couple by ordinals, typically 1-6, though the number of couples in the final can vary.
Medal examinations enable dancers' abilities to be recognized according to conventional standards. In medal exams, each dancer performs two or more dances in a certain genre (e.g., International Standard) in front of a judge.
In North America, examination levels include Newcomer, Bronze, Silver, Gold and Championship. Each level (i.e. Newcomer, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Championship) may be further subdivided into either two or four separate sections.
How competition levels are separated may be different depending on the competition in question. In addition to the previously mentioned competition levels, most competitions offer a specific competition series for competitors that include Pre-Novice, Novice, Pre-Championship, and Championship. Pre-Novice usually consists of Cha-cha-cha and Rumba in closed position dance steps. No sequins are allowed on costumes at this level and choreography is basic in nature. Novice consists of two or three dances, Cha-cha-cha, Rumba, and Samba. Novice is open to any costumes and choreography contains both basic dance moves and fancy and expressive movements as well. Pre-Championship and Championships have the same costume and dance rules. The only difference is they add Jive and Paso Doble to the routine. This breakdown can vary per competition. Competitors choose their corresponding level of dance skill and experience to compete in and are further categorized as amateur dance couples, and professional teacher dancing with their amateur students. One can only compete against dancers of their own category for both the level and category.
