To provide a better experience for everyone, attendance will be limited for workshops and social dances. Some packages and sessions will sell out early. If there is space, we may offer individual workshop and Saturday evening passes after May 1st.
To help everyone get the most out of these workshops, we will use the following guide to sort students into groups with similar skill level. The WSDC point system recognizes competition achievement. If you have earned points your name will be in the WSDC registry.
Level 1 – Beginners and dancers working on basic skills and those with limited social dance experience. This includes students currently participating in Beginner and Beginner 2 weekly classes.
Level 2 – You must be very familiar with all the common variations, connection skills, and basic rhythms, and demonstrate good technique. Significant social dance experience is required. Not for beginners.
Level 3 – WSDC Intermediate+ OR have 16 pts from Novice+Sophisticated+Masters OR successful audition on Friday
Level 4 – WSDC Advanced+ OR have 30 pts from Intermediate+Sophisticated+Masters OR successful audition on Saturday
Anyone who has not earned the required competition points may audition for a chance to move into a higher level. You’ll find these audition items under the contests menu when you register.
