I think pony club has freestyles for training and intro, but I am pretty sure first level is when they start for the USDF shows.I am in the process of putting together a first level freestyle right now.
USDF has rules about what you can, and can not do for each level. Also they have about time the movments can go and which movments you have to have in it. Also you have tyo get a certain score,I think perhaps 60%? or higher at the highest test of whichever level you are doing a freestyle for before you can perform one in a show.
