complete american syllabus list?

Hello, I know that the site is being expanded, and there's a lot of information/material not available, but I was wondering if a complete step list for American was actually in existence. I know it's a special syllabus designed for this site, but is there a step list for the american dances that is not completely listed in the "learn the dances" section here? for example I notice that tango and foxtrot only have up to full bronze, but waltz goes up to full silver.

have those not been developed, or have they just never been entered in the site (it has been this way for a while however). and if they do exist, is it possible to list a completely what exists, even if there's no material available on it yet? thank you.

Full silver smooth and rhythm should be available on this website before the end of the year. After the launch of premium membership in September, we'll be working around the clock to deliver the full silver material, the written as well as the video footage taken in June.

Jonathan

well for now I was more thinking just an actual list of the moves (no material, just what they are called).
