Bring character shoes just incase

The teacher liked us to use character shoes or flamenco shoes something that would make a sound

I recently came back from the senior summer school only one girl wore jazz shoes most people performed in bare feet or foot thongs

I hope this helps!!

Oh gosh! Some mixed reviews

Is anyone going this year?

My DD struggles with Penches,will this be nessecary for getting into a vocational upper school?

Does anyone have any stretches or tips to achieve a penche?

what type of grand allergo do they do?

And do you have to do grand jetes?

Sorry for all the questions!

Do you do classes other than syllabus work? Have you spoken to your teacher about your ambitions? Have you visited any of the schools? If not check their websites for open days or any classes over half term.

I used to do syllabus,not anymore currently do non syllabus and I've spoken to my dance teacher and she's confident that I can do it,I will check out for open days aswell!

Thank you!

The standard part of your question is difficult to answer. I would say the auditionees will be of a level that their current teacher thinks that with further three years worth of intense training they will be ready for jobs within the industry.

Some places have pre audition workshops and it might be worth attending some so firstly you know what to expect at an audition and also to see how comfortable you feel with the other potential auditionees.

Are you of an age that you are looking for sixth form next year?

I am 15 years old and auditioning for September 2016, I haven't been to many auditions!

Do you mean the standard of the classes given at audition or the standard of the other auditionees?

The standard of the classes given and the standard of the other auditionees

Thank you for the help!
