The San Francisco Standard and Gap are teaming up for a dance contest that puts Bay Area movers in the spotlight. Winners will perform the Katseye routine inside the Breathing Room set at Gap HQ in downtown San Francisco — a striking installation normally closed to the public.

Katseye, the global pop group recently featured in Gap’s campaign, made the routine famous. Now, it’s your turn to bring the choreography to life.

How to enter

  1. Learn the moves. (Tutorials with the choreographer can be seen here, here, and here.)
  2. Film your version (alone or with your crew).
  3. Post it on Instagram or TikTok.
  4. Tag @sfstandard and use #GapDanceContest.

Entries close Sept. 16 at 11:59 p.m. PT. Finalists will be selected and put to a reader vote on The Standard’s site. The winners will take the stage in the Breathing Room set Sept. 26 from noon to 2 p.m.

So grab a friend, hit “record,” and show us your best Gap dance.
