Course Description

Educational Online course

J412 Optional Beam Connections: To Give or Not to Give is a video online course. The goal of this course is to train judges and coaches to recognize when elements are considered connected or not. There are three categories: Acro Connections, Dance Connections and Mixed Connections. Each connection will be shown once; then you must decide: connected, connected with tempo deduction or not connected. The correct answer will be shown with any applicable rationale.

Each course will allow the judge to print a one-hour CPE (Continuing Professional Education) credit one time only.

The course will take approximately one hour to complete.
