Pre-Bronze dance test

Could someone please remind me what dances comprise the USFSA adult pre-Bronze dance test? Thanks.

Hi Annabel,

It seems as though I've been working on these forever!

Cha Cha
Fiesta Tango
Swing

If I could just get through the mohawk sequence in the Tango!
When I do it slowly I'm fine, but as soon as you add the speed I basically freeze. In fact, the last time I tried to pass this test I fell on the mohawk, on the last pattern! Needless to say, I didn't pass.

I just started learning the TenFox & for some reason, the outside mohawk is much easier for me.

Thanks. It's not the Mohawk I fall over on, but the long change of edge just before, when it has been known for a Certain Person to kick my feet out from under me.... usually in competition. You can see on the video at the Mountain Cup how relieved I am that we've reached the third pattern and it hasn't happened, and my head goes up and that last Mohawk is about the best I've ever done!
