Royal Ballet - Swan Lake 2024
cavycapers replied to Linnzi5's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
Yes, they do need to rectify this in some way, as I spent an evening constantly checking if it was a fault that had been subsequently rectified. 😡 Also, confusingly, if I used the find my seat for me option, it did bring up a stalls circle seat with a pillar blocking the view for me to put in my basket that wasn't available on the seat map 🤔 -

Wow, Red Shoes, that's amazing! I have fibromyalgia and arthritis, but find that ballet is the one exercise that doesn't hurt (well it does a bit afterwards!) Yoga kills me! But like you, my exam marks are good in the performance and musicality even if the technique is not so high, and as you get to the higher grades, these attributes become even more important.

I learnt grades 3 and 4 in a beginner's adult class, so had to go to some teen classes to learn the harder elements. They barely noticed me....😁

Hiya, we persuaded our teacher to let us do RAD grades as an adult. She started us at Grade 3 as being most appropriate for adults. I started ballet about eight years ago and didn't do it as a child, but always wished I had. I got my Garde 3 before lockdown and my Grade 4 in January this year. We're now on to Grade 6 (missing Grade 5, as there are beginner adults in the class who would find it too difficult). The examiners have been fantastic about it. I did Grade 4 exam with another lady, and the examiner, who had seen children and teens all day, said it was a lovely way to end the day 🥳. My jumps are low, my extensions are rubbish, but she scored me highly on performance and musicality. I guess that there are some gains as you get older. 😁

My friend and I saw performance on Wednesday and were wondering if the 'Stars' were danced by students as they all looked smaller than the other dancers?- 1,333 replies
