Hi My DD has been hunting for a black strapy (without adjustable bits)high leg leotard in black not shiny but a cotton mix. Any ideas please. XX

Is this Summer School residential? XX

Hi Curious, hope you DD enjoyed the Summer School. My DD who was in group 1 is at vocational school but another DD from her year was in Group 2. X

Hi Curious, My DD kept an eye out but didn't spot your DD. My DD is in group 1.

DD said there was a lady in watching the ballet class and after lunch the names of who was in each group and timetables were put up. Which group is your DD in? X

Thankyou Kiwimum6.xx

Well DD is all settled in at New Medlock House. DD said matrons are lovely and the single rooms with ensuite are very nice. There is a kitchen with fridge/freezer & tea/coffee making.Hope your DD enjoys her week Curious.Xx

Thankyou Kiwimum6. Are they very slim or sporty slim? X

*at the moment.xx

Thankyou Kiwimum6. Regarding tall are they 5ft7 to 5ft9? Really apreciate info as DD is looking at auditions at the month.XX

Hi Can anyone advise if ENB tend to take the taller girls in at 16? If so do they take very slim or sporty slim? Xx

My DD is a very friendly mother hen type.She is really looking forward to it.X

Hi Curious, My DD is 14 and Staying at Medlock house.x

For boarders Sunday 3rd of August until Saturday 9th of August.x

That sounds good. Do they have access to a fridge/frezzer in Matlock house? X

Hi afab, Did it give your DD a good insight into what the full time school is like? How do they split the students as My DD is RAD Advanced 1 currently?

Are any DS or DD of Ballet.co parents going to this or have been before? XX

The young lady who played the piano & sung in 'Peer Pressure' is very talented too. The 3 dancers & this young lady created a very powerful piece.

I agree the 2 gentlemen were excellent and I enjoyed their energy & enjoyment.

Hi Swan, What did you think of the student choreography pieces. The first was 'Peer Pressure' after Entree in Act 2 and the 2 gentlemen in act 3? Xx

When my dd for a yr9 place and ds for a yr7 place for Sept 2012 entry auditioned for classical course at Tring we did the 2nd to last audition day in late February. Both children were offered boarding bed and funding final. So I would recommend going with your gut feeling. Interestingly my ds only showed dance no singing, instruments or Drama to get to funding final. X

Just keen to know what its like. I am aware that there was a trio in the show. X

So what was the verdict of The Hammond Show tonight? X

Will that be a degree in ballet? As currently they have a common year then 2 years of either classical based diploma or Musical theatre.xx

Pictures does that mean that The Hammond won't be offering DADA's anymore? From September 2015 intake? Xx

I agree. Very competitive parent & competitive teacher is equally a bad combination.Xx
