Balletmumof2 Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Hi all My daughter starts northern ballet Junior Assocuates this Friday in Leeds and the kit list says she needs a Thera band.

BlueLou Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 (edited) They sell therabands in Planet Dance (in the foyer at Northern). They are pretty good at knowing what the dancers need for the different classes! However, it’s been really busy in the shop over the last couple of weeks with all the courses starting so they may not have what you need in stock. They will order it in for you though, and usually you get your orders the following week. I doubt that your daughter would be in any trouble for not having it for the first week if there’s none in stock in the shop, but if you’re worried you could buy a roll then you can cut it to whatever length is required. You can get 5m rolls off Amazon. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Theraband-Red-Medium-Resistance-1-5/dp/B00GUO2TNG/ref=sr_1_3?s=fitness&ie=UTF8&qid=1474543710&sr=1-3&keywords=theraband&th=1 Good luck! Sorry - just realised that the Planet Dance in Northern is not open on Fridays. Are you local? Edited September 22, 2016 by BlueLou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balletmumof2 Posted September 22, 2016 Author Share Posted September 22, 2016 Thanks for that. My eldest has a bunheads band, I'm wondering if she could just use that. Wish they would be a bit more specific. I'm not far away from the Batley planet dance if I need to whip there. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarahw Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I'm sure that would be fine. When dd did JA at Leeds they never specified a particular strength of band so I wouldn't spend in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancingboy65 Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 DS used a red thera band in NBT JA's ( still using it in the Inters!) Got it from Amazon. Hope your DD has a great time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarahw Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 It's not clear in my post but was Nother Ballet JAS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angeldancewear Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 The colour of the Theraband relates to its grade / strength. If you can it might be best for DD to try one first - so you can get the right colour to suit her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
