Why take an IDTA dance exam with Dancin' Motion?

1) Time of Arrival Please arrive at least 30 minutes prior to your exam time. This will give you time to get settled, get focused, warm up and review your exercises if need be. There will be teachers & assistant teachers in the changing room who will be able to help you with any last-minute questions or nerves that need settling.

2) Arriving at the studio - Please arrive via studio 2 side door not our main front door. Please be extremely quiet upon entering the building. Parents must wait in studio 2 whilst the examinations take place in studio 1. Please only bring 1 adult per child as space is very limited in studio 2.

3) Hair - All children must have hair in a classical ballet bun with hair net, pins, grips and lots of gel/hairspray. If wearing a doughnut, please do not buy a large one even if you have long hair. 

4) At Home - Please do not let your child worry about exams. I believe in every single child that walks through our door, and I know they’ll all do amazingly well. Dance is a FUN activity that can be so rewarding. I want all our students to feel that exams are POSITIVE and that they can do whatever they put their mind to. IDTA examiners are so lovely to the children during exams and they want the children to get the best possible grade, so they’ll support and encourage the children when needed. 

5) Ages 0-5 - All children taking a ‘Rosette’ go into the exam with a teacher and the exam is just like a dance class!

6) Awards - It usually takes 3 weeks for paper results to come through and around 4-6 weeks for delivery of medals, trophies, awards and certificates.
