General advice for a young ballet dancer (15yo)
Dancing unicorn replied to Rein2019's topic in Doing Dance
I wish we had a grumpy face as well as a heart! As I didn’t ‘really’ like the post about Pointe if you get my meaning!!! Haha It really annoys me teachers putting children en Pointe far too early/young and not enough training/strength 😡 -
Pre-Associate programme - do you mean at your dd’s new school as an extra lesson? If so then the teacher obviously thinks she’s suitable so I would go for it!

Fabulous news good luck to her 🍀

A friend needs help with an application photo
Dancing unicorn replied to ScottishDancerMum's topic in Doing Dance
Hiya yes Basically stand facing the front in first position Right or left leg to the side (depending which leg she can get highest!) Then lift (develope) leg to side turned out from hip arms in second position Hopefully the child should be able to follow those instructions too 😳 -
Good luck to your ds🍀🍀

If thinking of home stay then try Hammond in Chester. Sorry just realised you want ballet as main focus! -

Demi pointes for auditions at Royal.
Dancing unicorn replied to Mummy twinkle toes's topic in Doing Dance
How you present yourself for audition absolutely counts! I remember watching RBS summer school classes at white lodge and a girl there had absolutely filthy pointe shoes. She was really told told off about it! I know it’s not an audition, but neatness, clean shoes and immaculate hair are all part of the audition - sorry 😁 -
I honestly think it depends on which centre you are with. We were with Manchester and the teacher there liked them to wear their JA white Leo for first auditions and then any colour for finals! When we got to Elmhurst there was a mix of JA’s and Elm associate Leo’s!

One of my pupils (and I) have just booked for Birmingham which is on a Sunday! Can you not do that one instead? Just a thought x

I really love your enthusiasm! I would suggest firstly getting yourself to some proper classes. Just doing after school clubs just isn’t enough! Being in London this shouldn’t be too difficult to find some proper tuition. And then take it from there. That way you will see the level you need to be at to get onto any courses! Lots of children/teens spend years getting to a level to get into dance college and still never make it having had proper training!

Hi Zelda and welcome to the forum. You say you’ve done after school clubs! Do you mean clubs that your school runs or do you mean a ‘proper’ ballet/dance school? Have you taken any exams and what genre of dance are you hoping to pursue? Ballet, contemporary or commercial?
-
Ok so assuming the above, prep school! And then assuming Manchester JA’s as that’s nearest to Chester! Manchester JA’s are Fridays and sundays, so would Hammond still allow that! Just a thought!
