My daughter would love to be accepted. The teachers were very professional during the auditions, she had to do also a small interview and to see the doctor.

 

Do you know for boarding how is it work? The students stay in the same building or are in different boarding houses?

Dear Goldfish,  did your daughter get accepted to ENBS? I would love to get to know someone who is going to start in September.

My dd is going into her 3rd year at ENBS. You can pm me if there is anything specific you want to know. It is a good school and the students work very hard.

Dear kiwimum6, 

my DD got a full scholarship to start ENBS this September 2014. She is half english and Japanese and is so excited to be going there. If I need to know anything during the following year, I would be very grateful for any help.

Hi, I just became a new member. I am living in Japan and have first hand knowledge in the way that the Japanese ballet schools teach ballet. My dd has been training since five and the school she changed to at eleven years is well known for producing girls and boys that go to Lausanne and get scholarships to Canada National, Royal Ballet, Hamburg, ENB etc. My dd worked her socks off to get to the same level as her peers (japanese girls) she is half english/ japanese by the way. The lessons were gruelling, the teachers were frightening. My dd came home in tears so many times at 10.30 pm ( everyday) but to get to the competition level here you have to excel. There are so many ballet competitions now, many cash prizes too but the ones where the european directors are judges are the most intensive. There are no national ballet schools here so anyone who has got the talent and heart to go for the big goal has to get noticed by the international schools and try to get a scholarship. Due to the recent top winners of Lausanne etc being Japanese, there are now thousands of kids here doing ballet and they have the determination and skills.
