[Ansteorra] Middle Eastern Dance Championship at BAM - Rule Changes

[Vickie Bratcher]

I want to thank everyone who took time to take the survey on the way we
have been handling the music for the Middle Eastern Dance Championship

.

After careful consideration I have decided to make some changes based on
those results starting with this year’s championship.  ‘


Here are the rule that will be in effect for this year’s Competition at
BAM.  I can’t wait to see you all there

.

Documentation is highly recommended, but is not required.

   - Dancers will perform 2 pieces.  Whether the pieces are choreographed
   or spontaneous the dancer’s choice. This piece is limited to 5 minutes.

·         The second piece is an improve piece, preformed to the “house
band”.  The reason for this piece is the Kingdom Champion must be able to
perform at the need of the Crown. This piece is limited to 3 minutes.

   - Dancers may perform to live music or recorded music.  Recorded Music
   must be appropriate for the period style piece that is being performed
   - Dancers may provide their own musician(s) or use the "house
   musician(s)" when dancing to live music.
   - Dancers MUST sign in by 11 a.m. Saturday morning and pick up
   information packet; sign in location will be posted at the event.
   - Depending on number of dancers, there may be a preliminary competition
   round prior to the evening’s final competition/performance.
   - Performances will be judged according to the current Kingdom A&S
   performing arts judging form (see the Kingdom’s A&S website to view the
   form)

In Service,
