Hello. My DD is week 1 and will be her first time. She is also 10. I would suggest taxi in and out of the park and rent in Sheen rather than Richmond. Cheaper and generally better traffic (I went to Uni nearby in Roehampton)

In shock to say my DD is one of the 2 JA girls from Eastleigh... There are 2 girls and 2 boys with yes emails from our centre. Those that have followed my story will know that we started this road with a "no" email from RB in yr4... So just goes to show it really does just mean "not yet" Please don't let your lovely DC give up :x

Thank you. We do love chatting to the owner too. Her DD is at RBS so lots of info to share. However it's more the pointe fitting I'm interested in, esp at Spotlight, as DD been recommended to go there. However when I popped in to ask about booking, the lady serving couldn't even recall the 4th brand they sold... Didn't exactly instill confidence :/

Royal Summer School 2017 - four week programme this year
southerndancemum replied to amos73's topic in Doing Dance
Not all the JAs will have applied for SS before doing the CG day last week (we haven't) so not sure how they would "mark' them... Unless there's another course early next yr that we've not been told about after closing date -
Flowerpot - my DD went from no to yes in a year so def worth trying

Physique requirements prohibit talented dancers?
southerndancemum replied to MrsSri's topic in Doing Dance
My DD does not have high arches yet is a RB JA... its something she is visually (even to my untrained eyes) improving with exercise as time goes on, and was really rather flat footed before she started with them. I am curious about the long / short torso issue as that's something I've not come across before... can someone explain it to me please, ratio etc, I assume? -
Tring Park Classical Ballet Academy audition
southerndancemum replied to tropicmama's topic in Doing Dance
If it helps, CBA uniform require canvas splits soles even in group 1 and pretty sure my DD who gained a place in the Nov audition a couple of yrs ago wore her split soles with socks- 78 replies

Had a slightly different variation in this at the weekend... At a friend's BBQ and was chatting to wife... She was telling me how how 4yr old desperately wanted to join the ballet club at school. I said what a lovely idea but oh no that was totally the wrong thing to say! She cant "stand the idea of her daughter doing something so girlie" - somewhat shocked at this I pointed out she was only 4 and probably wants to be with her friends. I was very matter of factly told that if she did ballet, she would "have to take up judo or something to counteract the girlieness and strengthen her up" At this point I glanced over at my DD and looking at how she is solid muscle. From nothing but daily ballet training, excused myself and suggested to my DH it was time to leave. I didn't dare open my mouth until I was safely home
