Family, friends, and HEAT Dancer alumni were in attendance in the lower bowl of the Kaseya Center. The hopefuls performed in front of the judges for a chance to join the 2026-27 squad.

This Heat organization doesn’t just look for elite dancers, they put these young women through professional development the entire way. Their professional development includes business interviews, technique training, fitness, photoshoots, and etiquette evaluation. The process builds well-rounded, confident performers who can handle more than just the dance portion of the job.
The Miami Heat made it clear they’re coming for the best dance team in the NBA title. The standard is high and the next wave of talent is ready.
Stay tuned for the 2026-27 Miami HEAT Dancers.
THE HEAT IS ON!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 @MiamiHEAT @HEATDancers #MiamiHeat #MiamiHeatDancers #HeatNation #HeatCulture #NBA pic.twitter.com/gtpOBhqD8c
