  3. I feel so sorry for you both my heart goes out to you both.I do feel having a teacher who shouts and does not push your dd is having a negative affect. Maybe she is bored and needs challenging my dd was told she was not ready for grade 6 so I changed schools the teacher put her straight in intermediate she loved it, it was more challenging and she has never looked back. The teacher is fantastic and never shouts infact I think there is more laughing. Listen to your instincts you no your dd best.best wishes to you both

  5. My dd said she had chocolate spread last night ,maybe that is where your spread went, I did laugh
  6. My dd phoned, and said there is a party tonight for them all. My dd would love to stay another week,it sounds such a lovely place, no one wants to leave.
  7. Hi my dd also went here last week and was sad to leave, what fantastic training, friendly teaching and parents and children beautiful. The studios they had for the week on the Thames was outstanding,even though I did get lost on the first day. I would move down there for that training outstanding.

  11. Hi charlie4dancing Congratulations for your dd in getting a place on the cat, your dd sounds very talented what a little star after months of being ill. I wish my dd had auditioned at the same cat as your dd, as they would of appreciated a talented classical dancer like your dd. Does your dd want to be a contemporary dancer or classical, as my dd had to make a choice,which is very wrong. All the best to you and your lovely dd
  12. Hi moneypenny Do parents leave straight after they have unpacked,and is it best to arrive early or later,sorry new to this

  14. My dd friend attends and is very happy and she tells me the teachers are very caring,My dd was looking at the summer school,but is going to elmhurst instead,let me no how your dd gets on
  15. Hi huddsballetmum congratulations for your dd, hope she enjoys her new journey,hi twiggy my dd understands what you are going through, embrace the ballet,and in time you will feel it was a good choicexxxxxxx
  16. Hi everyone,thank you for all your help,my dd is 15 and wanted to try contemporary ,something new to challenge her,and stretching classes,as well as meeting new people, it is always nice to open a new door and enjoy the adventure it brings. Most of the schools take contemporary ,even if she takes the classical route ,which she hopes to do ,contemporary will be a class she will have to take. I think I did not like there attitude ballet or contemporary should not be a choice at 15 embracing both would make a very strong dancer, I was told by a few people not to audition my dd as they do not like classical dancer,s who use this course to top up there ballet.then leave half way during the course,as there were a lot last year,so that left them with a sour taste in there mouths for ballet dancers. The good news is she will be going to the york scholars in September,and learn contemporary there alternative weeks, so that is positive, But for now classical all the way for my dd,
  17. Hi dancersmum yes it was for an associate school. Hi spannerandpony it was the none lyrical contemporary,as my dd does ballet she thought it would be nice to compliment a little contemporary ,as we thought dancers if possible should be versatile. Maybe they are right in thinking this school is not suited for my dd, as I do not feel at this age there should be a choice between dancers,I do admire any dancer who takes the courageous decision to embrace all styles of dance,and try something new.
  18. Hi my dd auditioned for a contemporary school in Manchester ,and last week received an email, to say ,my dd is a worthy candidate for the course,a very talented young dancer,and they had debated for some time,but she is to classical ,her ballet is very strong,and although most of the dancers that day did ballet,my. dds was on another level,and they feel that this would show to much in the other style of dance. Then they went on to recommend my dd trying for northern, or the royal ballet school,and if in the future she decides she has a passion for contemporary instead ot ballet, please get Intouch . I always thought both styles together make a beautiful art,why have you got to choose one or the other
  19. Hi bunhead99 It made me laugh your post ,as my dd is 15 and also going to elmhurst the following week ,so I guess your dd and mine will be in the same class for the two weeks,it would be lovely if they got to no each other. I will have to stay in london that week ,as it is to far to go back,I can see for you it will be very late to travel back .will your dd be boarding at elmhurst ,my dd will be ,and looking forword to it. A week without my dd it will be peaceful to peaceful
  20. Hi bunhead99 My dd has also gained a space ,I also was hopeing for more info on the summer school and teaching,how old is your dd, Congratulations to your dd fab news, exciting times
