Dancing unicorn Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Would definitely recommend Opes, far more friendly and the teachers are amazing xx 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellaballerina's mum Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 13 hours ago, Balletmum55 said: My dd did OPES for the first time last year and absolutely loved it. She was 11 and she made so many friends from around the country and abroad, all of whom she has stayed in touch with (the brilliant side to social media!) She loved every one of the teachers who all gave something different and said they learnt such a lot, which was reflected by the showing of work at the end of the week being exceptional for the short time they had been there. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend xxx She also did the Elmhurst summer school and she thought Opes was better in terms of the amount of dancing they did, the social side in the evenings and fun they had in the dorms. I would agree looking purely at the showing of work, which was better at Opes, but this is of course our experience only. I hope your dd has a great time wherever she goes, once she does one summer school she’ll be hooked however and want to go every year so think long and hard 🙈🤣! Thank you so much. Yes - she attended RAD last year and absolutely loved it. Unfortunately, we missed out on getting a place for her this year as we were waiting for the result from RBS summer school (she was wait-listed). I think we are now committed to attend something every Summer! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balletmum4ever Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Results for ENBS Course B are on their way out. A yes for my DD for Week 2. Good luck to everyone waiting. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAK Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Funnily enough one of our emails arrived shortly after I posted (typical) and I'm going to be a live test of the theory that yeses get sent out first since we don't have an email for dd2 yet 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to your dc for Course A, hopefully the wait won't be much longer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t forget Easter and therefore school holidays are earlier this year so it may affect the response dates this year. 🤞🏼 Places were still being offered in May last year. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penguinboysmum Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Does anyone know if any summer schools are still accepting applications? Elmhurst states apply by 9th March to secure discount but no mention of any other closing date. DS isn't old enough for Northern Ballet CAT summer school as he's only 11.

I would phone Elmhurst and ask if they have any places left for the junior school. Same if you are waiting to hear about the senior course. IME they are very friendly and won't mind at all.

Science in Dance Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 I would add KS Dance International Summer School in there too with Royal Ballet Members teaching there alongside Kate Simmons and Gillian Hurst. 25th July - 1st August www.ksd-online.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffeemum Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 There's the Master Dance programme summer school held at Ibstock Place school in London. The principal used to be ballet principal of White Lodge and Elmhurst. Thoroughly recommended it and she gets in fabulous guest teachers from the Royal Ballet. Also highly recommended Woodside Retreat summer course which is residential. My DD absolutely loved the last course she did there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
