Level testing is required for intermediate and advanced workshops. This will not be a weekly occurrence, just once per month, on the Saturday of our first dance each month. Individuals wishing to take "beginner" classes and "all-Levels" classes will not be affected by this track auditioning process. 


Q&A:
1) Q: Do I have to level test for beginner? A: No beginner is open for everyone!
2) Q: Will I need to level-test for advanced class every week? A: No, the level testing will only happen on the first set of classes of each month.
3) Q: I cannot make it to the level testing on the first dance weekend of the month, but I'd like to take an advanced class on the second and third dances of the month. Is there a way I can level test separately? A: At this time, no.
4) Q: At what time should I be ready to level test? A: The registration desk will close for advanced classes at 6:25pm. Level testing will begin in Kurth (on the fourth floor) at 6:30pm.
