Nhân tiện chuẩn bị cho chuyến tập huấn cuối năm tại Hà Nội ( tiếc là DangThanh không thể tham gia vì my wife sắp sinh baby với lại không sắp xếp được công việc cơ quan đoàn thể ), dangthanh xin trích lại nguyên các bài viết về MEDAL TESTS để các bạn HuE khi tham gia cũng có chút sự chuẩn bị cho riêng mình.
Bài được phát pháo bởi bác Pre tại link:

Trong cái Công văn của UB có viết về nó, chắc Ban tổ chức và UB thì hiểu quá rõ nó là gì rồi, nhưng UB và Ban tổ chức thì không “test” mà những người đóng 1 triệu và bỏ ra 4 ngày từ khắp mọi miền nước về để được “test”.
Đã là thi thì phải biết thi cái gì và tuần tự ra sao chứ ?
Xem cái công văn chỉ thấy các loại thi và tiền chẳng có nội dung. Pre thì ‘mù tịt” , bối rối quá.
Nhưng ơn giời , từ ngày có cái Internet, cũng đơ mù hơn , Pre bỏ ra khoảng 30 phút lần mò và xếp lại nhưng thứ liên quan để ai cần thì xem.
Ấy là mới 30 phút mà đã dài thế thì cũng xin các công bộc của dân ăn lương để làm khiêu vũ xin bỏ ra hơn số phút đó để vì dân.
Trước tiên phải nói vì nó dài nên để nguyên tiếng Anh, có thời giant a dịch dần.

MEDAL TESTS
Doing a medal test is a great way to focus your dance education towards a specific goal. At the Kensington Dance Studio we offer you the opportunity to do medal tests with the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing (ISTD), one of the oldest and most prestigious international dance societies.
Medal tests can be taken in the Latin American dances (Cha Cha Cha, Rumba, Samba, Jive and/or Paso Doble), the Ballroom dances (Slow Waltz, Slow Foxtrot, Quickstep, Ballroom Tango and/or Viennese Waltz) and the "Club" dances (Argentine Tango, Salsa, Mambo and/or Lindy Hop).
There is a progressive programme of medal tests: Social Dance Test, Pre-Bronze, Bronze, Silver, Gold and Gold Star, as well as various special award tests. For each level you will be expected to dance most of the steps specified in that level by the ISTD syllabus, and dance those steps with the quality of proficiency and technique expected at that level. A certain minimum number of dances is required for each different medal test. And the cost of doing a medal test varies from test to test.
For a medal test, you can dance either with a partner or with your teacher. During the test, you and your partner/teacher will be the only couple in the studio, with an examiner from the ISTD watching and taking notes. A few weeks after your test, you will receive a copy of the examiner's notes plus your certificate and medal.
The best way to prepare for a medal test is through individual lessons (on your own or with a partner). In this way our teachers can make sure that you are dancing the proper figures for each level, and with correct technique. If you are already attending the group classes or courses at the studio, you will able to use what you have learned in class and refine it through individual lessons. Exactly how many individual lessons are required varies from student to student - consulting with studio co-director Ralf Schiller and the studio's teachers will help clarify your own path to a medal test.
Medal tests are held twice a year, usually in May and November. Please check the Special Events 2007 page or the Calendar 2007 page for the date of the next test.
For more information on medal tests, or to start preparing for one, please contact Ralf Schiller on 020 7823 9949, or speak with him at the studio.
