  1. Another thumbs up for OPES . Beautiful showing of work yesterday - lots of happy face and young dancers not ready to leave just yet ..
  2. What a wonderful lady - she will be missed and an incredibly tough act to follow. I'm sure that many of us On this forum will wish her well and thank her for the passion she has put into YBSS - grateful that my DD benefited from this fabulous summer school and from Marguarite's teaching.
  3. Glad to hear he's had a great week -I'm looking forward to collecting this time next week
  4. Ballet skirts by Lucinda are lovely as well
  5. Unfortunately with a DADA there is no provision for accommodation - school fees only.
  6. Dear moderators I hope that this is an acceptable posting. I am posting this opportunity aimed at those working towards their first contract having completed vocational schooling. I have no association with Autrand Ballet France, however I have first hand experience of Pascale Autrand, her training ethos, creativity and passion for ballet, choreography ,and for her dancers. I feel that this is a wonderful opportunity, well worth considering if you have yet to secure your first contract. Below is Pascale's message ... This is the opportunity to join the emerging young company of Autrand Ballet France - based in the region of Toulon. Open for trained classical dancers from 17 to 24 years who are seeking a contract. You must be of a good standard and looking to progress towards perfection. This opportunity will allow you to train, dance and perform whilst still searching for your first professional contract. Autrand Ballet welcomes you. The opportunity is for the pre professional dancer and offers weekly 20 hours of classical class tuition, 6 hours of contemporary and 10 hours of contemporary/classical creation and rehearsals. There will be numerous performance opportunities and internships available during the school holidays. With notification of 3 weeks to the director, young company members are free to audition and accept contracts outside of Autrand Ballet, also within the year you are welcome to return, so allowing the acceptance of temporary work. The training cycle and contract are for the period of 12 months at a cost of 1000 euro. Apartments are available within the vicinity of the studio and the village offers typical French life. Toulon university is able to offer French language learning to international students. Tuition within the company is in English. To apply for this opportunity please submit CV/photo /video to pascaleautrand@gmail.com
  7. I have 13 pairs of unworn Grishko Nova pointe shoes for sale. Size 41/2 XX M £35 per pair or all for £300
  8. Hi Dancemom2 - unfortunately no one has a crystal ball. If your dd catches their eye then she will be on their radar - however, everyone who applies to US gets an audition - it's how she performs on that day and at finals that is the decider irrespective of whether she has attended summer school or for that matter full time at Whitelodge. If she comes it will be 2 weeks of fantastic training ,if she doesn't come it won't be held against her. Good luck with your decision.
  9. Hi David - can you let us know how many contracts were offered from this years Grand Audition. Many thanks
  10. My next question ..... would anyone know the finish time on the Friday? TIA
  11. Hi all, does anyone know what time to arrive on the Sunday?
  12. There should be a recovery programme for traumatised parents .... there is no way of knowing what you are signing up to - good luck Balletmummy18 I hope that your son finds his happiness xx
  13. My advice (as one who can look back with the benefit of hindsight) is, unless you can get absolute guarantee of support for your son in this environment and he quickly becomes genuinely happier in himself ( see it for yourself rather than talking to the school, difficult when they are away from home) then look for an alternative school where he can feel happier and more confident. Mental health challenges are real and when not recognised by a school can result in long term damage to confidence, self esteem and health. As a parent it's a terrible place to be, trying to decide what to do for the best. If you have a gut feeling follow it, it will usually prove itself to be right. Good luck with everything!
  14. Amazballs - so made up for you all Celi - what a journey!! ???
