The United States Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing conducts examinations in order to improve the dance standards.
By providing a graduated series of goals for the Student and Professional dancer, their instructor or Trainer will be able to
determine if the dancer has mastered a skill level before introducing a higher level.
From the standpoint of the individual Teacher, or studio owner, there are a number of specific reasons for holding exams:
Examinations offer a perfect goal-directed program, which will keep Students interested in their dancing,
as well as developing a lifetime hobby. Working toward a specific exam provides an excellent motive to
maintain a Student‟s active involvement with lessons.
The examination experience, the written critique, the certificate and the medal all combine to give a
Student or Professional concrete recognition of the accomplishment which he/she would otherwise miss
by merely coming in for a weekly lesson. Sometimes a good Student will become discouraged because
their perception is that they are not improving. The steady measurement of progress with the Medal Test
Program will remedy this problem.
Examinations provide a useful teaching tool. Students who commit to the scrutiny of an Examiner will
work harder to eliminate faults and to master problem areas in their dancing. Examinations administered
under the auspices of the United States Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing will add prestige to and
help develop the image of the sponsoring studio, signifying a school that trains its Teachers and Students
to a high standard. To be a part of such a studio gives the Student an additional sense of pride and
loyalty
