"Other" classes

Other Class 1 (can be from any of the above disciplines but not that same type as one previously used.) For example, you could use Tap 1 and Tap 2 as your two dance classes, but you can't use a Tap 1 or 2 as an extra class. You could use a Tap 3 if it is building on what you learned in 2. Commonly, Musical Theater classes are used as the extra classes.
