Which Class is Right for My Student?
At Rise Up School of Dance, dance classes are named by number for age groups and letter for skill level. For example, Level 1 is for ages 6–8, Level 2 for ages 9+, and Level 3 for experienced dancers ages 12 and up.
If your student is 12+ years old, but has no prior dance experience, they would start in Level 2 classes.
