Entry-Level Solo DanceSport with Strong Fundamentals and Flexible Competition
The Nordic DanceSport League – Youth Female Solo Level 1 is an inclusive and motivating DanceSport competition created for female solo dancers aged 16 to 18 who are beginning their competitive journey or building early DanceSport experience. Designed as an entry-level category, this level focuses on confidence, learning and enjoyment in a supportive and professionally organised environment.
As part of the Nordic DanceSport League, Youth Female Solo Level 1 offers a modern and flexible competition format tailored to young dancers competing independently.
One-Dance Competition – Freedom of Choice
Youth Female Solo Level 1 follows a one-dance competition format, where each dance is judged as a stand-alone competition. Solo dancers may choose to compete in any of the eight Standard and Latin dances, depending on preference, readiness and personal goals:
Standard dances
Waltz
Tango
Slow Foxtrot
Quickstep
Latin dances
Samba
Cha-Cha-Cha
Rumba
Jive
There is no combined overall result, allowing dancers to focus on individual performances and progress one dance at a time.
Entry-Level Focus on Essential DanceSport Skills
Level 1 is designed to support development of key DanceSport fundamentals:
Balance and posture
Timing and musical awareness
Basic technique and coordination
This approach creates a low-pressure environment where young solo dancers can build confidence, improve core skills and enjoy a positive introduction to competition.
