Most GPs will do them but not many will do for free. Our GP charges around £25 for these.

BA degree at Rambert and London Studio Centre
Mummy twinkle toes replied to Mala's topic in Doing Dance
My Dd went to LSC and had a very good time. Very good teachers and a friendly school. Everyone has an individual timetable and because there are four strands students support and encourage each other. We know several that have gone onto classical companies, musicals and cruises. It provides good opportunities to branch out too as there are classes in jazz, tap, MT, contemporary and heels. Fees are higher but rent at Chester House is only 8-9K per year so a lot cheaper than other places. Chester House includes food too.- 14 replies

Just wondered if anyone has heard back yet and what dates have been given for actual audition.

If he is a good performer and can pick up choreography quickly then Disney may be an option. They are looking for character performers, vocalists and dancers. Auditions regularly held in U.K. If he needs to train in MT first then LSC, Laines, Urdang are all great options. Good luck.

Tring and Hammond do a meet and greet session where they introduce the school. Elmhurst has a q and a with parents (or they used to. It has been a few years since we did lower school auditions). Good luck

post 16 dance - general advice please :)
Mummy twinkle toes replied to So-not-a-Dancemom's topic in Doing Dance
LSC does 2 degree pathways- one at 18 which needs A levels and the other is for 16 yo- you do foundation degree for 2 years followed by top up. Dd did the latter from 16. My Dd did classical ballet but at LSC you can also choose to focus on contemporary, MT or jazz. Everyone at LSC has their own timetable.- 32 replies

The youth company train on a Sunday but ex members and pro dancers have joint in for the class part previously. That is on a Sunday. Yury is an excellent teacher and often coaches the professional Russian dancers when they perform at the Royal Opera. -

If West End is an aim then look at where most performers train. London Studio, Arts Ed, Laines, Urdang all have excellent dance courses and their jazz/commercial are very strong. Their dance alumni are all over the West End. Most offer diploma courses at 16 and degrees at 18. You can watch clips from Move It to see their dancers.- 32 replies

Yes, LSC do accept older students and could be a good option.

Here is another useful page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/553625416324093/permalink/921453432874621/ . This one is for parents of aspiring professional dancers.

There are some good groups on Facebook. They are mainly US based but do sometimes discuss opportunities in Europe and U.K. Marcy North is a very knowledgeable member in this group: https://m.facebook.com/groups/parentsatthebarre/?ref=share She has a son who is a professional in the US. You can DM her for some useful information about auditions/companies. Her son runs his own platform called Ballet scout.

For anyone who is doing the Trinity diploma, Italia Conti and Middlesex University are offering a 1 year top up degree. Funding available via Student Loans. It converts the diploma into a BA degree which Unis will accept if you want to go onto M level study: https://www.italiaconti.com/courses/ba-hons-professional-arts-practice/ https://www.mdx.ac.uk/courses/undergraduate/professional-practice-arts Both are distance learning so no maintenance loan usually but fees paid via student finance.
