CHOOSING CLASS LEVELS

The level guidelines listed below are recommendations only.  Teachers should use their discretion when placing students in levels.  Parents who are unsure of where to place their child should consult their teacher for a recommendation.

Class levels are determined by skill level, as well as age. It is recommended that students not be placed in a level above their ability.  If you’re not sure, always place your student in the level based on their weakest skill.

FLIGHT AcroDance Conventions reserves the right to change a participant’s level placement if necessary. Students will not be permitted to participate in skills that are so far above their ability level as to make them unsafe.
