Perform an ethnic or social dance to communicate understanding of the style
You need to perform an ethnic or social dance (like poi, samba, waltz, or lindy hop) and show you understand the style through your movement choices. Your teacher will assess whether you can remember the steps, use the right posture and timing, and capture what makes that particular dance special.
You perform the ethnic or social dance with the basic movements in the right order, showing you understand the general style through correct posture, focus, and timing.
You perform with clarity and detail, showing you understand the specific characteristics of the style—like defined hand and head movements—with generally accurate rhythm and musicality throughout.
You perform with all the technical details of the style while also conveying the emotional content and cultural meaning of the dance, demonstrating comprehensive understanding.
