Defining a dancer’s level is hard!
Every person is different. We each come with a different combination of strengths and weaknesses, and we will all progress and plateau at different moments in our dancing journey.
On top of that, there are many different skills which are essential in dance: technique, musicality, connection, vocabulary (knowledge of figures & movements) and cultural awareness. Each of us will be stronger in some and need to work more on others.
We believe in developing well-rounded dancers, and so each level includes all five aspects, as well as a blend of more “universitário” and “roots” movements.
To help you choose the group that suits you best, take a look at the descriptions below.
But remember, everyone is unique. Your value as a dancer is not defined by your level. We would like each of you to be in a group where you will learn and progress at a speed that is right for you.
