TRADITIONAL SCORESHEET EXPLANATION

This scoring system is a means to encourage and reward achievement of creativity, artistry, and excellence in choreography and performance. It should provide a process of education to allow participants to evolve to the greatest level of their potential.

This system is meant to recognize the efforts of instructors and performers, using a criteria reference scale of achievement, creativity and impression. It should provide the structure for all participants and program styles to start with an equal opportunity to succeed. The end result is to reward those accomplishments.

The traditional scoresheets are divided into three categories of performance and three sub-captions within each. One to three judges are utilized in each category.

LINEAR SCALE

A Linear Scale is provided with each scoresheet to describe the criteria of each Category and sub-Caption. Evaluation in each category and sub-caption should provide a rating and ranking in it.
