The International Dance League Teenage Division is a unique development programme for talented dancers born between 2008 and 2014. Combining battle culture, performance, mentorship and teamwork, the programme gives young dancers the opportunity to grow both individually and as a team.
On 14 June 2026, dancers from across the Netherlands gathered in Rotterdam for the IDL Team Selection Teens, where they took part in workshops, battles and creative challenges alongside the Team Captains and a Special Battle Guest. At the end of the day, four official teams were selected.
Now, they are training towards the International Dance League Festival (16–18 October 2026), where they will compete through battles, showcases and performances for the title of IDL Teenage Division Champion.
