Hi Maia, I used to organize my dance cards by difficulty, but currently, I use categories in my box that are largely based on dance-defining figures (Petronella, star promenade) and types of progression (slide left, circle-pass-through). I find that system of organization to be more useful when writing out a program for an evening.
