Skill Levels

  • Tumbling is welcome in your dance choreography and will be judged only as it enhances your dance performance.   Routines that emphasize tumbling, contortion and acrobatic skills need to be entered in the "Open" or "Acro" Category

  • Please be careful that choreography, music and costuming are age appropriate.  Our competition is designed for family viewing.
     

  • Any routine that the judges feel is NOT entered in the appropriate skill level (Beg, Low Int, High Int, Adv) will be judged and awarded in the appropriate skill level division (not the level originally entered in). The dancer's score will be adjusted to reflect the newly assigned level range for comparable and fair overall competition results.  If you are unsure of your skill level, please consult with your dance coach.

Single or double pirouettes, forward leaps, Chaines)  ​Any Routines, solos or groups, with triple+ pirouettes, advanced leaps, fouettes or obvious "above beginning level" dance skills will be judged at an Intermediate level)
