I guess there is no true answer.there is no guideline that says if a dance has certain elements then it progresses to a certain level.there is no wheel to spin (wouldn't that be confusing!!).it's all a matter of personal interpretation. as a choreographer I can say, "How do I chose the level?". ![]() intermediate/ high intermediate/ advanced and sometimes crossover dances that hit both beginner and intermediate levels As a dancer or instructor I understand the question, "How could the choreographer have thought this was a beginner dance?". I did find a few areas last night that took more time - a little different step that took going over several times to feel is REALLY HARD to try to put a level on a ems like the hardest ones I've learned are almost always just marked intermediate, but the ones marked easy intermediate are usually really easy.where does one in the middle fall? LOL Maybe some of those higher intermediate level dances should be marked Advanced - but again that word sometimes scares away people and they won't give it a chance.then we have the variety of levels.the absolute beginner/ ultra beginner/ beginner/ improver/ easy int. It's also a little fast and we all know that any dance that is quick at all feels like 'lightning speed' when you are first learning the steps.speed comes with practicethat doesn't determine the level of a dance. I figured it would take longer to teach - even though there is repetition, it's still a 72 count dance.that means going over it more to get the sequences remembered. FROM: Terri Alexander I don't know how to determine a level on a dance.last night I taught my class my newest choreography "Ladies Choice"(a big thanks to the dancers for being my test group).I thought I was teaching an easy intermediate dance.I guess I should have said this was intermediate and not easy intermediate.
