Wednesday the ban was lifted in Minnesota and two juniors fought their way to be able to compete on the dance floor.

The sport of dance has been around forever but some believe it's gender specific, meaning only females can participate.

A federal court on Wednesday blocked the Minnesota State High School League from enforcing a rule that bars two boys from joining school's competitive dance teams.

"It's really great for the Minnesota State High School League to get with the times and allow boys to compete on their dance teams," said Laura Kuhn, Minnesota State High School League dance coach.

The association that oversees Minnesota Schools extracurricular activities argued in court that allowing boys to join girls teams would take away from the equal opportunity.

Noah Roddy, a Minnesota State University Moorhead dancer, said he was beaming when he beaming when he found out the news.

"You have to do what you want to do and not because someone else told you to or if someone else told you-you shouldn't do it," said Roddy. "If that's where your heart is, then that's what you're going to be good at."

Roddy said this would allow for more opportunities for boys to express themselves through dance.

"Train that emotion muscle as well as their other muscles because we don't get to see that a lot you know, with guys having to be tough and everything," said Roddy.

A few local dance studios in Moorhead said they're for the idea of allowing boys on their dance teams, in fact, they encourage it.

The two male dancers will be able to join their school's dance teams next season, while a federal district court decides on a broader scale if boys can join dance teams.
