Notes on the IDTA Syllabus

The syllabus to the left is the most recent iteration, taken from 
the Professional and Amateur Dance Syllabus published by the 
IDTA, last amended in February 2010. All competitions prescribing 
the IDTA syllabus use this list of figures. 

Competitors should always check which step list they 
must adhere to. We cannot be held responsible for reprimands 
or disqualifications based on following an incorrect list. 

Unlike the ISTD syllabus, we have had to leave the Additional 
Figures to the end due to the fact that there is no indication at 
which level they are to be danced.
