Student Achievement Awards
Bi-annually, we invite a highly accredited examiner into our dance studio to evaluate our students' progress using the prestigious Dance Vision Syllabus and Standards.
These "Medal Tests" are used to universally measure and define the level of skill for each individual dancer. They are a wonderful opportunity for students and dance teachers alike to set goals, measure progress in a tangible way and plan for success.
​
Upon the successful completion of each medal test the student will received diploma and a detailed report with scores on each dance and insightful comments on what the examiner liked about the candidate as well as what they should work for the next level!
