No for us for Manchester

We are also waiting on Manchester and happy that shouldn't be a long wait!

My DD is in group 2 at Manchester, so excited now email has arrived! Good luck to everyone auditioning!

Is anyone auditioning for Manchester?

Hi stagedancer I still have the costume and would be happy to sell on I will find a photo and some measurements for you!

Well done Theodore and Krishell! Although my DD not involved with this, love hearing good news!

Thanks everyone, DD's teacher is deciding between Hungarian and Lithuanian? Then it's time to get out the sewing machine!

Thank you Loulabelle, haven't seen Hungarian before, cue visit to YouTube! Do like ones with pretty costumes too! Thanks too taxi mom, but seem to have lots of tarantellas on our festival circuit at the minute!

My 9 year old DD is in need of a new national dance for festivals. She has been doing Swedish but desperately needs a new one that is not too young, but not too old! Any ideas???

thank you flowerdew! that's really helpful. Will give them a call tomorrow!

Can anyone give anymore infornation about Hammond Associates? what it involves ? ages? audition information?

we would be applying for Manchester

What year did your DD get into Elmhurst JAs Aurora? Eloise and Aurora have both your FDA enjoyed their JA classes so far?

Thanks! My DD does very well at her local school and is a confident child but is also pretty sensible for her age and understands that there are a lot of reasons we don't understand why some children are selected and others not! She is quite tall and although no means overweight is not slight!

My 9 year old auditioned for year 4 last year for Elmhurst and RBS but was unsuccessful, she is really keen to try again for year 5! She really enjoyed the experience last time and wasn't too disheartened when it was a no, so think going to go for it again, any words of advice?
