you shall need
-coordination
-flexibility
-alertness
-presense of mind
-balance
-emotion
-focus
-discipline
-consentration
-communication to the audiance/partner

I would say
- flexibility
- good use of arms and head
- presentation
- good stage presence
- communicating with audience or partner (s)
- smooth, fluid, floaty movement (or sharp/funky, depending on type of dance)
- nice facial expression
- nice, clean, beautiful moves
- well learned routine
- good contrast (if needed) between smooth and funky/sharp
- engage the audience and keep them interested
- a good routine, well choreographed
- keep your posture

That's a bit more than ten, but the MOST important by far is that you enjoy yourself, and look like you're enjoying yourself. Audiences love to see people who love what they do and have fun!

Hope that heped :D

The most important things to me is to have good facial expressions and show that you are having fun! Just do your best and you'll be great.
