It depends on how you define "advanced dancer". If we define "advanced dancer" as "able to cope with NZ advanced class" (which presumably has a lot of double spins), then the question is easy.

There are certainly much better definitions of "advanced dancer", but I think all the NZ folks are trying to do is make sure their advanced class flows smoothly.

On the other hand, my fuzzy idea of advanced dancers includes being very balanced and stable in spins, in which case doing doubles probably isn't much of an issue for them.
