Dance Programs
| Square Dance Programs |
| Mainstream (calls 1-71) |
| Plus (calls 72-100) |
| A1 (Advanced 1) |
| A2 (Advanced 2) |
| C1 (Challenge 1) |

| C3B & C4 (non-callerlab programs) |
Callerlab created and maintains all of these "dance programs" except for C3B and C4. Each dance program builds on the skills learned in the previous dance programs.
| Round Dance Programs |
| Phase I |
| Phase II |
| Phase III |
| Phase IV |
| Phase V |
| Phase VI |
The Roundalab rating system is now used everywhere with very few
exceptions: the old terms "easy", "intermediate" and "advanced" have
disappeared, which is why it is important that all round dancers
understand the Phase system: know your "fluency phase" and avoid the
disappointment of having to leave the floor because the dance is too
hard.
