CAMP LEVELS 2012: 

WHICH LEVEL ARE YOU? Read the descriptions below to get a better idea of what class level you should participate in, or please ask instructors for their opinion if you are still unsure.

LEVEL I: (8 yrs old & up): Dancers should have some experience in these subjects, but it is not necessary to have extensive knowledge. They should have worked on single pirouettes and may be working towards doubles, grand jete and developpe leaps, chaine turns in combinations etc. These classes will incorporated barre, across the floor and center floor combinations, but will be moving at a slower pace than Level II classes and will be concentrating on basic technical elements within combinations.

LEVEL II: Dancers should have a strong grasp on these dance techniques already and are looking to expand their talent with advanced choreography. They should already have strong double pirouettes working for triples and other advanced technical elements such as fouettes, attitude leaps etc. Expect combinations to be high paced and to be taught quickly. Classes will include center floor, barre and across the floor materials depending on the class.
