National Youth Ballet - junior final auditions
Ms Sunshine replied to BalletBelle's topic in Doing Dance
Last year we went in with them. They gave them a number and I walked my dd up the stairs in central to a waiting room then waved bye. They did a normal ballet class and improvisation. Nothing tricky. At the end they photograph them in different groups. Yes, no's and waitlist maybe. You then pick them up at the time organised at the main entrance of central. Hope that helps x- 3 replies

Associate classes - increasing number of hours of ballet pw
Ms Sunshine replied to Sugarplummum's topic in Doing Dance
Hi. Where about are you based? A few I can think of are Royal ballet associates, (centres all over the UK) Tring Classical Ballet Academy (6 Sundays a term) Young Dancers Academy (10 Saturdays a term) Elmhurst Young Dancers (3 centres) plus loads more. -
Is anyone else still waiting on an email? xx

National Youth Ballet auditions - main company
Ms Sunshine replied to Katia05's topic in Doing Dance
My dd was in the juniors so cant help with main company, sorry. I do remember girls of 12 in the juniors. I think they will juggle kids to fit where they want them. Best of luck! x -
In greek my dd has been asked to study animals or nature and try and dance like they are that thing. Interesting! Last week she came out with a piece of paper asking for them to bring slime or putty to class this week. To analyse the feel, appearance and consistency, and try to incorporate this into the dance movements. See how she gets on

My dd does ballet, tap, modern, greek and theatre. Ballet and greek are her favourites

NYB was more effort with 2 auditions before she got a place. We had a long way to travel and hotels before the summer school and while she was in theatre in Birmingham and Sadler Wells. She had the time of her life and we met friends for life. Opes was simple was no auditions with a lovely end of week show. But nothing compared to how grand and special NYB was if you can afford the extra's. x
-
I think its in the next few days the audition dates and applications are announced. They have a facebook page. Hope that helps. I'm still undecided about the a summer school for my dd. NYB was amazing last year but said she would be happy to do OPES again as she loved that the year before.

Last year I think we sent the application mid December and the 1st audition was February. Hope that helps x

We ordered straight away and a small size which we have been sent. They did say the bigger size was on order. I phoned them as the leotard came up small so had to return and get the next size up. They were very helpful over the phone. We are all sorted now.

So happy with this! We are sewing names into the dance gear and towels as well. I thought this may help. We also had a big discussion about what she wants to wear to the Red Carpet party night. Her outfit won! We have put music on a CD for the comp and packed a dress. Think we are nearly sorted xxx

My dd was a no as well. She got in NYB, Tring CBA, Hammond associates,YDA associates so just shows they must be after a certain thing. Not sure what but good luck to the yes's. Not sure I will suggest for my dd to audition again next year. That wait was a killer My dd did not seem bothered. I think they just want to dance dance dance!

Summer ballet courses - advice for Summer 2018?
Ms Sunshine replied to Littlebear's topic in Doing Dance
My 9 year old dd is doing National Youth Ballet, (NYB) this summer. We had to go through 2 auditions to get a place but she is very excited about it -
Huge congratulations! My dd is so excited we are a yes as well! We are the same, she will have to stay residential but she is totally delighted with that. Lots to plan and get organised now.x
-
Same! Nothing at all x

My dd loved it as well. She said she was a sailor in one of the dances. She said they were put in 3 groups at the end so I guess we will know in a week if its the yes, reserve or no group! (She thought her group was the smallest so we are guessing reserve.)
