Syllabus

SIPBE have compiled syllabi to cover all major dance styles, drama and singing. Each syllabus has been developed to provide comprehensive training in all aspects for those pursuing dance as a leisure activity, as well as those who wish to make dance their profession, either as a performer or dance teacher. You will find that SIPBE follows the guidelines of all leading dance societies; therefore our standards are very high and comparable with other international dance societies.
The use of our syllabi enables our teachers to have the confidence to know that they are using correct teaching methods for all age groups and standards, progressively developing the candidates’ abilities and understanding, and utilising a particular emphasis on safe dance practice.

Examinations can be taken in all styles of dance, music and singing.

All Grade, Major and Set syllabi are devised to give a sense of achievement to individuals as well as providing a strong technical foundation, an understanding for the movement, musical interpretation and improved co-ordination.

Details of all examinations are set out in our individual syllabi which can be obtained from head office or ordered from SIPBE SHOP.

Our syllabi are reviewed regularly by our various committees and our examinations board to make sure that we maintain the high standard that has become expected of us.

Please note that while International Standard, Latin and Theatre styles have relatively consistent syllabi worldwide, syllabus lists can differ significantly depending on the organisation or society that provide them.
