OMG we're gonna get invigilated

[fascination]

sheesh I just read the new NDCA rules and pro and I are in deep doo...man we have three free spins in our waltz routine(full bronze) and a picture line and a dbl pivot....what's a girl to do? silver?

....what's a girl to do? silver?

It's a possibility.

Talk it over with him and see what he suggests. After all, he knows you and your current ability best.

How long until the next comp?

 

[standardgirl]

You could dance open bronze instead of full bronze. That way, you are free to dance any steps you wish.

 

[fascination]

have talked silver... next comp is in 4 weeks...may do open before silver for the next two comps...will see

What's the BFD? There are only two choices that don't involve you being DQed. Dance in a level where you're allowed to run your choreography, or stay in your level and take it out.

That would be my suggestion, if you're not ready to move into silver yet.

well since you put it so civilly, first of all the comp is in a relatively short period of time...secondly I hate to go back to the simpler routine b/c it is BOOOOOOOOOring, thirdly, it isnt all silver, so I would definately have to change at least half of the routine and learn new in a month, not to mention that I have already registered....mkay? just a bit of a surprise since there was no prob at OSB and its gonna be a pain to change right now b/c I am dancing enough new routines already

Then go for it!

 

[fascination]

yep...I like that ...a level a year....(i know , I know , spare me)

 

[mamboqueen]

I would do open bronze. Or maybe the first level of silver.

I told you that my teacher had a student get DQ'd on one little incorrect step. Why take the chance?

 

[fascination]

well obviously were gonna have to do something...and I dont think we're the only ones...thats part of the reason that the routine is so open in the first place....it was changed b/c we were seeing so much of that

 

[alemana]

do the step rules apply in closed events only or open as well?

 

[cornutt]

I generally try to avoid invigliators.

 

[mamboqueen]

how?
