VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

[> [> [> It is an art, but it is also a sport as we all agree. I have always thought there should be a laid out criteria all judges have to adhere to. The CLRG apparently disagrees -- Inside, 12:05:19 12/11/20 Fri (cpe-65-189-55-125.cinci.res.rr.com/65.189.55.125)

Timing/Tempo -25%
Artistry/Stage Presence - 40%
Form (Turnout/Pointed Toes/Extension/Arms/Posture) - 25%
General appearance - 10% (This would be neat hair, but not necessarily a wig; tidy outfit, but not necessarily a blinged solo outfit; socks pulled up, etc.)

[> [> [> [> I left out "difficulty." There should be a criteria for difficulty to discourage schools from focusing on simplicity to make it easier for the dancers to perfect the "basics." -- Just my opinion, 13:05:14 12/11/20 Fri (cpe-65-189-55-125.cinci.res.rr.com/65.189.55.125)
