  1. Thinking of all the dance school owners and teachers. It must be a very worrying time for you all. While I am able, I'll continue to pay for DD classes, we can sort out extra classes etc when all this passes. Its such a shame that this interrupts so many plans. We have a musical in May, scheduled to dance at Disneyland Paris in August, ballet exams mid year, annual showcase in November. Its all an unknown now. Even the later events need class time to choreograph and practice. Stay safe everyone xx
  2. Lovely to read all your updates. Good luck to those on reserves xx
  3. Hi. Just wondered if anyone had heard about this? I assume it'll be cancelled but would be interested to hear if DD got a spot or its rearranged. Thanks x
  4. Thanks. She's OK but I assume it'll also be a no for the spring pop up too (although she is at the younger end of the age for that anyway) Just wish there was feedback rather than a straight no. I have a feeling its as much to do with her confidence than anything else as she is quite shy and possibly doesn't perform to her full potential in auditions, maybe looks nervous. Good experience/practice if nothing else though.
  5. Unfortunately it was a no for DD 😞 bit gutted but never mind. What will be will be. Well done to your DD xx
  6. Just wanted to update this thread and thankyou all for the information on welcome performances. I haven't had any notification about the welcome scheme but checked on the off chance as Swan Lake welcome performance is 28th March and I've booked 2 tickets on the front row of the ampitheatre for £17 (including ice cream!). I am over the moon and can't wait to visit with my daughter, train tickets are booked for a quick day trip down to London. So huge thanks to the knowledgeable members of this forum xx
  7. My DD attends tomorrow and it states year 7 girls on the paperwork if thats any help.
  8. Thanks, sounds like they do take quite a few forward, wonder how many audition in the first round. Just need to take somemore photos now for the application.
  9. The cupcake went down very well!! A really good morning visit, I found it really informative and everyone seemed very friendly and helpful.
  10. We really enjoyed the day, we were first session I think and saw warm up and conditioning. The class looked very good and were very professional, must have been strange all those people watching
  11. Hi there, Wondered if anyone could advise what is involved in the audition for the Northern Ballet associates just to prepare my DD as we have decided to apply. Is it run as a ballet class in a similar way to the RBS auditions? Many Thanks
  12. 🙈🙈 will be lovely to have all those eager eyes looking up to her
  13. Hi. My daughter and I are going over tomorrow for the open day but looking at the associate scheme rather than CAT due to where we live
  14. My DD is auditioning next Thursday for MA place. Taking along our optimism, hopefully she will enjoy it as much as last years JA audition which turned out to be a no. A great experience if nothing else.
  15. Well we had a pretty nasty journey over the M62 this morning in the snow and rain plus the tyre pressure warning light coming on in the car so had to pull off and check it!! We managed to park easily on Quarry Hill carpark once we got to it around the building site. Everyone checking us in seems lovely and friendly and DD happily went in with some tinsel tied around her waist!! I'm sure she'll have a great time 😁😁
  16. Thanks. Says £18.50 for 5 hours which seems a lot. Will look at other options though incase I cant get on the Quarry Hill carpark. I did think about train but it starts at 9.30 so its just too early really, still have to get to the station this end. Car is better option this time although I do like train vs driving most of the time!
  17. Thanks @Pixiewoo thats really helpful. Travelling over from Manchester so want to be prepared. I'll check them out. DD is very excited
  18. Hi. Anyone who has visited the Yorkshire Dance building, any advice on parking? Thanks xx
  19. Just realised I didn't acknowledge this, thanks for your feedback. It sounds really positive
  20. Oh thankyou for this I have booked DD on the Leeds nutcracker workshop too. The Birmingham one sold out before I made a decision!! Really glad to hear that your DD enjoyed the summer one.
  21. On this thread I put the rehearsal dates for one i enquired about but we couldnt attend. Might give you an idea of how it works.
  22. I really hope something comes up in the North West too. Fingers crossed 🤞🤞
