ICE DANCING 1. COMPULSORY DANCES 2006/2007
In accordance with Rule 539 paragraphs 1 & 2, for all ISU Championships and International Competitions in 2006/2007, the compulsory dances are announced as follows (the order is in accordance with the renumbering that will be published in the Ice Dance Handbook):
JUNIOR EVENTS SENIOR EVENTS # 9 Starlight Waltz # 6 Westminster Waltz # 20 Silver Samba # 11 Golden Waltz # 25 Midnight Blues # 17 Rhumba
In accordance with Rule 539 paragraph 2, a), b), c) and d) the dances to be skated will be drawn as follows: 2007 Four Continents and European Championships: One (1) Compulsory Dance from the Senior dances listed above shall be drawn at the Senior Grand Prix Final and announced to the Members by the ISU Secretariat. The same dance shall be skated at both Championships. 2007 World Championships: One (1) Compulsory Dance from the Senior dances listed above shall be drawn at the World Junior Championships, from the dances not drawn for the Four Continents and European Championships and announced to the Members by the ISU Secretariat. 2007 Junior World Championships: One (1) Compulsory Dance from the Junior dances listed above shall be drawn at the Four Continents Championships and announced to the Members by the ISU Secretariat. 2. REVISIONS TO COMPULSORY DANCES FOR SEASON 2006/2007 The following are changes to Descriptions, Charts and Diagrams in the Special Regulations Ice Dancing 2002 as indicated by underlining. (All of these changes will be included with the new publication of Compulsory Dance revised Descriptions, Charts and Diagrams in the Ice Dance Handbook.) Westminster Waltz Revise as follows: Description page 40 - last sentence: Care must be taken in swinging the free legs on step 22 during the RFO so as not to interfere with the transition of hold. A one-beat change of edge onto an RFI is skated at the end of step 22 to assist in changing the lean for the restart of the dance. Chart page 41 - Step 22:

Golden Waltz Revise as follows: Description page 67, paragraph 2, last sentence: On step 21, the free legs swing forward for three beats while the man lowers the lady into a semi-sitting position (where her free leg is extended forward, and her outstretched body is nearly parallel to the ice) completing the movement by lifting the lady so they both can skate side by side threes ending with front coupées. [This deletes the “shoot the duck (Tea Pot)”position to provide a more elegant position for the lady in keeping with the original version.] Clarification of Description page 68, paragraph 2: On step 31 the left hands are raised and on beat 4 the man makes a shallow drag (his step 31a), while the lady skates step 31(a). During her step 31(b) which is very difficult as she must skate a 15-count step all on one foot, there is a change of hold. The lady performs an inside three-turn on beat 1 and holds the back outside exit edge from the three for two beats and afterwards, completes a back outside twizzle of 2 rotations taking three beats. During her twizzle the man performs a RFI three-turn with a strongly bent knee (his step31c), The lady continues step 31b, and after the twizzle remains on her right skating leg, assuming a position with the free leg stretched in front and the body nearly parallel to the ice (her layback position). In this position she executes a back outside three-turn and then, after drawing herself up on beats 13 & 14 of the step, completes a right forward inside “twizzle-like motion” on beat 15 of the step (count 3 of the measure), then pushes onto to her LFI (step 32). Meanwhile, the man skates a two-footed three turn (his step 31d, lifts and extends his free leg on step 31e and concludes with a series of cross steps (his 31 f and g) These steps are known as the “Cascade and Dip” section.

Paragraph 4, after 1st sentence - The free leg swings in front before the turn. The free leg position after the turn is optional. Step 15 is a cross roll and step 16 is crossed in front in order to facilitate stepping forward to repeat the dance. Chart page 96

GUIDELINES FOR ORIGINAL DANCE FOR 2006-2007 For all ISU Championships and International Competitions, both Junior and Senior, the rhythm of the Original Dance will be:
Tango One, two or three types of Tango may be used. If 2 types of Tango are used, one of them may be repeated. The types of Tango are described in the “Ice Dance Music Rhythms Booklet and Compact Disc 1995” on pages 8-9.
The Dances must reflect ballroom, social and/or street dance character and style translated to the ice by flow and use of edges.
Vocal music is permitted. Variations of tempo within one selection of music are permitted. Each selection of music may have different tempo. Duration: 2 minutes and 30 seconds (plus or minus 10 seconds).
For the Tango, the lady is permitted to wear trousers. Required Elements – the following required elements must be included: (All Required Elements should enhance and reflect the Tango rhythm and music chosen.)
Two (2) different types of Short Lifts - up to 6 seconds each (but no more) chosen from:
a) Stationary Lift b) Straight Line Lift c) Curve Lift d) Rotational Lift
A chosen type of pose for the lifted partner and a chosen type of position for the lifting partner may be used in only one Lift and must not be repeated in the second Lift. Otherwise this Lift will be demoted to Level 1. Note: The following “acrobatic” movements and/or poses during the lift that are more appropriate for an Exhibition rather than for sporting competitions are not allowed:
− lifting hand(s) of the lifting partner higher than his head − lying or sitting on the partner’s head − sitting or standing on the partner’s shoulder, back − sitting on partner’s boot(s) − standing on the partner’s leg * − lifted partner in upside down split pose − lifting partner swinging the lifted partner around by holding the skate(s)/boot(s) or leg(s) only
and/or by holding the hand(s) with full arm extension by both partners.
* Pending the Congress approval
One (1) type of Dance Spin (Spin or Combination Spin) – but no more.
The scale of values has been revised so that the Spin and the Combination Spin have the same value but the requirements for levels of difficulty have been changed. Combined Spins and Lifts are not permitted.
Two (2) Step Sequences:
One Diagonal Step Sequence executed as fully corner to corner as possible and must be skated in dance holds or variations thereof (e.g. Foxtrot, Waltz, Tango, Kilian except Hand-in-Hand with fully extended arms). One (1) pattern retrogression of up to 2 measures of music, that may include 2 brief stops to change the direction, is permitted, but no more. Steps in the retrogression will not be counted to determine the level.
Lifts, spins, and jumps of more than half (½) a rotation are not permitted AND
One Midline (not touching) Step Sequence along the centre axis (midline) of the ice surface extending as nearly as possible for the full length of the ice surface. This sequence must incorporate matching and/or mirror footwork and one set of sequential twizzles (two twizzles on one foot for both skaters skated simultaneously with up to one step in between). No stop(s) are allowed before and/or between twizzles. During this step sequence the partners should remain as close together as possible, so that the distance between them is not more than 2 arms length, but they must not touch.
Lifts, spins, jumps of more than half (½) a rotation, stops or pattern regressions are not permitted.

Original Dance Requirements/Restrictions
Excepts from Rule 509 are reprinted below and must be strictly observed with the following exceptions/additions as underlined: a) The incorrect selection of music for the rhythms chosen must be penalized by the judges.
b) Only music with a rhythmic beat may be used and the couples must skate to the rhythmic beat.
c) The musical introduction to the original dance may be without beat or melody for a maximum of 10 seconds.
d) The duration of the original dance shall be 2 minutes 30 seconds plus or minus 10 seconds. The time must be reckoned from the moment when one of the couple begins to move or to skate until both partners arrive at a complete stop at the end of the program.
e) Except during the required step sequences, the pattern of the dance must proceed in a generally constant direction (either clockwise or anti-clockwise) and must not cross the long axis of the ice surface except once at each end of the rink (not more than 20 meters from the barrier). Loops in either direction are permitted provided that they do not cross the center axis.
f) All steps, turns, rotations and changes of hold are permitted provided that they are appropriate to the rhythm. Difficult, original, varied and intricate footwork is required for both skaters. For the Linking Footwork/Movements a program that relies heavily on the use of chasses and progressives (runs), posing and one directional skating is considered to be less difficult than one containing changes of edge, rockers, choctaws and other such steps and turns, and multi-directional skating. Hops, a few toe steps, and small jumps of not more than ½ rotation are permitted. Excessive skating on two feet, by either partner or both, is considered as showing the inability to skate or maintain balance. However, 1 highlight for which one or both partner(s) are on two feet may be included (maximum duration – 5 seconds). Kneeling or sliding on two knees and/or performing a full split position on the ice is permitted if not used excessively. A program which is choreographed so that its performance extends to all sides of the arena is preferable to one directed to only the judges’ side.
g) Partners must not separate except to change dance hold, to perform the midline step sequence or the permitted full stop. Separations at the beginning and/or end of the program may be up to 10 seconds in duration without restrictions on distance of the separations.
h) There are no restrictions on dance holds except for the required step sequences. Skating in Hand-in-Hand hold with fully extended arms is not allowed.
j) After the clock is started with the first movement, the couple must not remain in one place (even if doing brief extra stops which are permitted) for longer than 10 seconds. After this, up to one (1) full stop is permitted (maximum duration: up to 10 seconds). Any choreography appropriate to the music selection (including a separation of not more than 2 arms length apart) may be included. This full stop may not be included in the required step sequences.

REQUIRED ELEMENTS FOR FREE DANCE SEASON 2006/2007 – SENIOR
The following are the Requirements for a Well-balanced Free Dance Program that shall apply to all events for the season 2006/2007. The Free Dance Rule 510 and the definitions in Rule 504 should also apply. The requirements have been adjusted this season (including reducing the number of elements) to allow for more variety in programs and to enable couples to use the elements and linking footwork/movements more creatively.
FOUR (4) DIFFERENT TYPES OF LIFTS, but no more selected from the following list: TWO (2) of which may be chosen from the Long Lifts which must not exceed 10 seconds. Short Lifts (Lifts not to exceed 6 seconds in duration): a) Stationary Lift b) Straight line Lift c) Curve Lift d) Rotational Lift
Long Lifts (Lifts not to exceed 10 seconds in duration): e) Serpentine Lift f) Reverse Rotational Lift g) Combination Lift
Note: A chosen type of pose for the lifted partner and a chosen type of position for the lifting partner is permitted in only one Short Lift or in one part of the Long Lift.. Each lift in the repeated pose or position will be demoted to Level 1. The Referee will make deductions for lifts that exceed the permitted duration.
TWO (2) DIFFERENT STEP SEQUENCES – ONE selected from group A) and ONE selected from group B) as listed below:
Group A) Straight Line in Hold Step Sequences: a) Midline: skated along the full length of the center (long) axis of the ice surface. b) Diagonal: skated as fully corner to corner as possible.
Group B) Curved Step Sequence (anticlockwise or clockwise): c) Circular: utilizing the full width of the ice surface on the short axis of the rink d) Serpentine: commences in either direction at the center (long) axis at one end of the rink and progresses in three bold curves
and ends at the center (long) axis of the opposite end of the rink; pattern utilizing the full width of the ice surface.
Note: The scale of values has been revised so that the step sequences in Group A have the same value and the step sequences in group B have the same value. Both Step Sequences may be skated in any dance hold. However a variety of basic types of dance holds must be included in the step sequence in order to increase the levels of difficulty. If the Step Sequence is not skated with the rhythm pattern of the music, the judges must reduce the GOE Lifts, jumps of more than ½ rotation, stops, dance spins, pirouettes, pattern regressions and loops must not be included in either step sequence.
ONE (1) DANCE SPIN selected from Spin or Combination Spin
Note: One additional Dance Spin is permitted but only the first performed Dance Spin will be identified and considered in determining the level of difficulty. This additional spin will be considered by the judges in marking the Component for Linking Footwork/Movements. The scale of values has been revised so that the Spin and the Combination Spin have the same value but the requirements for levels of difficulty have been changed.
ONE (1) SET OF SYNCHRONIZED TWIZZLES:
• The four different twizzle entry edges are: Forward Inside, Forward Outside, Backward Inside, Backward Outside. • All sets of twizzles are comprised of 2 twizzles on one foot for both partners with up to 3 steps between. • Each twizzle shall be at least one rotation on one foot performed simultaneously (at the same time). • Both partners must skate the same number of rotations for each twizzle. • Only the first two Twizzles in a set of Twizzles will be considered in determining the level of difficulty of the Set. • The skaters must travel across the ice during the turns (if the action stops they become spins). • No stops are permitted before the first and/or second Twizzles.
Note: Additional Set(s) of Synchronized Twizzles is/are permitted but only the first performed Set will be identified and considered in determining the level of difficulty. Each additional Set of Synchronized Twizzles will be considered by the judges in marking the Component for Linking Footwork/Movements.
Combined Spins and Lifts: Combined spins and lifts are permitted but are to be counted as separate elements: i.e. as one of the permitted lifts and one spin.
