I wish it went straight from elementary to grand prix... that would be the only way I'm ever going to get to attempt a grand prix

Can do Freestyle to music from Novice up

I think the reference may have been the kur that people who qualify at GP can do?? Might be wrong

I think it goes Grand Prix then Grand Prix Special and then the Kur?

So complicated.....

There is also Introductory as from Next year so:
Introductory
Preliminary
Novice
Elementary
Medium
Advanced Medium
Advanced
Prix St Georges
Intermediaire I
Intermediaire II
Grand Prix

Then Grand Prix Special and Kur (although I don't think these are set levels - once you get to Grand Prix you have to qualify for the Special and Kur, I think - Kur you do definately)

But then you'd have to do Medium before you got as far as Elementary !

Grand Prix special is the highest. It is usually used for the individual tests in finals. The transitions are harder there are more of them and the way inwhich the movements are asked for on the ground plan is more technically difficult.
The Kur at any level has only the main movemets at the level as required elements so could actually be described as an easier Granprix.
