Placement
It is imperative to understand that unlike academic placement, dance students generally stay in the same class for 2 years and sometimes 3 years as the levels increase. Placement is based on a number of variables: previous study, age, maturity, and strength & technique; however, all placement is at the discretion of the instructors. It is important to impress upon students that “moving up” is not indicative of “being better”, but rather proper placement is to insure the most positive, obtainable, safe, and beneficial learning environment for the individual.
