Which criterion is scored up to 0.10?

• A. Artistry: Musicality Throughout.
• B. Dynamics: Energy maintained throughout routine.
• C. Artistry: Choreography-Lack of variety of poses, phrases/connections.
• D. Insufficient dynamics throughout.

Answer: (C)

In scoring, artistry is broken into factors like how the choreography is structured and how it communicates through movement. A small deduction—up to 0.10 points—is given specifically when the choreography lacks variety in poses, phrases, and connections. This signals that the routine isn’t showing enough range or musical phrasing within its movements, which is a minor artistry issue.

The other statements point to different scoring areas: musicality across the piece belongs to a separate artistry element focused on musical interpretation, while dynamics and sustaining energy fall under the Dynamics category. Those typically carry different, often larger, point implications than a 0.10 deduction. So the criterion that aligns with a 0.10 cap is Artistry: Choreography—Lack of variety of poses, phrases/connections.
