I don't think there were any, anyway back to my original question, I am looking for 1 ticket for tomorrow. Thank you

I can't see any?

I have found one ticket, does anyone have one more? I know it’s unreserved seating. Thanks

Does anyone have two tickets to this?

Does anyone know the 2018 date for this?

Also check all the universities in London as they rent their accommodation over the summer period.

Have PM'd you

Recently attended a class advertised Beginner/General, and although I am not a beginner myself, (have RAD Advanced), I am not as strong or fit as I used to be and like to keep up with a couple of classes a week. The class was very mixed in age and ability, with one or two near professional standard dancers, right down to people who may have started ballet in the last few years as an adult. Expecting Beginner/General, I assumed a simple barre and centre, however the class was not simple at all, it was Intermediate in standard except at a painfully slow pace. Slow tendus, grand rond de jambe en l’air and multiple forward port de bras, to the point where your body doesn’t feel warm anymore, your back, thighs and calves are starting to hurt and you are wishing for something more up tempo or cardio. This did not happen, and the barre went on for an hour. As a RAD qualified teacher I was looking around the room and horrified to see adult beginners battling grand battements en demi-pointe, completely out of alignment, knees bucking barely over toes and accidents waiting to happen. The teacher, who didn’t introduce herself at the beginning, just sat on a chair for the majority of the lesson, dazing into the centre. After the barre had finished I hoped to do centre practice or corner work, but it was more slow releves, like something out of Vaganova Academy, except I didn’t feel like I was gaining strength, except perhaps causing a repetitive strain injury! So I started to wonder what the opinion is on the following: Does being a professional dancer who maybe has coached professionals/vocational students qualify you to teach the adult beginner market or not? How long should be spent on the barre or doing very slow movements with the majority of these attendees having been sitting at desk jobs all day, is there a higher risk of injury in this group with slow repetitive movements which are uncorrected and not executed well? What responsibility do vocational schools who offer these lucrative adult ballet classes have on student safety, if any? I am concerned because I think there is a growing market of adult beginners attending such classes being put at risk of injury.

Do they mean Steven McRae rather than Stephen McCrae!?

I saw this woman near Wimbledon a few years ago https://www.watkinsphysio.com/dance-injuries

The link in the email to Open Up doesn’t work either, someone typed it in incorrectly!

I have send you a PM

Is there any information or news on the 2018 festival, including the dates?

Has the date for this changed, seems to now say 28 January?

How many tickets is this?

Just putting out another post for this. Thanks

Does anyone have a pair of amphitheatre tickets they want to sell for this performance, looking for something not too expensive but with a good view. PM please, thanks

Happened to come across this on ROH website, no one has notified me by phone or email, so lucky I checked! Might be useful to other ticket holders: "Due to unforeseen circumstances, this event has been rescheduled and it will now take place on Monday 6 March, at 7:30PM. Ticket holders for the original date, 21 February, who stilll wish to attend may do so with their original tickets. No further action needed. If you have booked for 21 February and are now unable to attend on 6 March, please contact the Box Office on 020 7304 4000 (Mon-Sat 10am-8pm) as soon as possible to arrange a refund or discuss an exchange. Please note that exchanges are subject to availability. We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience."

Does anyone know what this rehearsal will be on? Have a ticket, but want to know if it will be classical or contemporary? Thanks

I know there is someone representing ENBS, but not sure if he is from UK

I was just there this afternoon and all the seats seem to have a good view, I am not sure if it changes with a ballet, but it is very open, with no obstructions.
