Auditions
There will be no regular level auditions for ASC 2026. Levels have clear requirements and those who registered for the wrong level will be reassigned.
Level 2: Newcomer and beginner novice dancers
Level 3: Experienced Novice (preferably has novice points, at least competed in novice multiple times and passed prelims (reached semis or finals), has chance to get into the final)
Level 4: Intermediate - dancers eligible to enter Intermediate division in their role.
Advanced&Allstar: WSDC Advanced and above levels - eligible to enter division
In the past, over 95% of dancers registered at the correct level. However, if someone registers for a level where they don’t belong, they will be reassigned at the registration desk or by the teachers during the initial workshops.
Please be respectful and accept these decisions! We try to be empathetic and reasonable, no one wants to humiliate anyone.
For those who feel they are not at the right level after this process, they can ask the teachers to look at them and move them up. Please accept their decisions as well, they are professionals who know best.
This way we can avoid the time-consuming, humiliating, and overall unpleasant process of auditioning.
