Adult Tap Awards
Adult Tap Duos/Trios Awards:
These are new tests and can be taken in the same order as all the Medal Tests. Bronze to Gold are 1 Dance Tests, the Gold Bars and upwards can be 1 or 2 Dance Tests. Awards pictured opposite.
On this page, we thought it would be a good idea to list all the current Adult Tap Awards from the I.D.T.A Adult Tap Syllabus. Also included are photos of the Awards and the I.D.T.A exam marking system.
These comprise of 2 8 Bar Amalgamations, followed by 1 Routine which must not exceed 1 min & 30 seconds. The Silver & Gold will obviously be to a higher standard and include more difficult steps!
For the Bronze Exam, the recipient receives a small wooden plaque with the Bronze Medal affixed, then for the Silver & Gold Tests the recipient will receive the respective Medal to affix to the plaque!

Again, all the Gold Bar Medal Tests comprise of 2 8 Bar Amalgamations, followed by 1 Routine. Although the length of the Routine is increased to 2 minutes.
Again, each Gold Bar must be of a higher standard than the previous, with more difficult steps and choreography.
For 1st & 2nd Gold Bar the recipient will receive a larger wooden plaque, however for 3rd Gold bar the recipient receives an impressive cup!

For the 1st Star you receive a wooden shield with the 1st Star affixed. For the other 4 Awards you receive an individual Star.
