Les Mills Superstar is a mixed gender event. While we absolutely respect the desire for a ladies-only category, we want to be transparent that both the regional and final stages of the competition are mixed-gender events, with mixed judges and participants. Les Mills SuperStar is a competition that shines a light on Instructors both at events and on social media. The main prize is a place on stage at a Les Mills Live event, which is also a mixed-gender environment.

During this competition, the judges are looking for future talent to join the IMEA Presenter Team. We will be using Les Mills Superstar to help with our ongoing recruitment.
