  1. Most sold. Only the pink leotard is still available
  2. Bosaddo heat retaining warm up trousers/Trash bags in the sold out colour ‘Milk’ Cost £89 new 8-10 years (similar in length to Bullet Pointe trash bags in XS so lasted my daughter until she turned 12) 76cm long (legs) 31cm waist across (has drawstring so is adjustable) £35 incl 2nd class signed for postage

  4. We had a very British week for our daughter when she was 10, maybe they take more UK dancers in the younger years?
  5. Sorry I meant Wednesday when the course starts . Thanks!
  6. Has anyone had any communications since 18 January when the invoice was sent? We paid and have had nothing since, we are not even sure when to turn up on Monday! I only just realised this today…
  7. Same, only offered grishko 2007 when my daughter was new to pointe. Fittings tend to feel a bit rushed at Dancia, it depends on who you get as some are very helpful and experienced and others seem to be novices? Freed have always been amazing! So helpful, nothing is too much trouble and they are so knowledgeable. we had a disappointing experience at Bloch recently, I’d go so far as to say that the fitter was rude. The new shop is beautiful though
  8. Can confirm iPhone photos at home are not a barrier to getting a royal ballet intensive offer. Good luck everyone
  9. We are giving up our place, as we are going to be away, and I assume the waitlist will move very shortly
  10. I just do the summer application with my husband’s email…
  11. Has anyone heard anything yet? We only applied today but keen to hear if some places have already been offered
  12. Were you happy with the autumn intensive? Considering applying for spring, we have a few days left to do so… we are hoping for hard work and busy days (if offered a place) 😃 does this sound about right, or how was it?
  13. Dd has loved the RBS summer intensives and has been a boarder all the times she has gone. She loved it for the social aspect! On watching day I did notice how some of the international students really seemed to be treating it as an audition, as others have pointed out in this thread. Just incredibly switched on, ‘performing’ the barre etc. No surprise that two of them were given a direct entry for next year’s SI. it is incredibly expensive and ballet wise I don’t think it’s the most intense one, they make them work much harder in others according to dd
  14. Last year we found out on 29 November… I don’t remember when the deadline was
  15. But there will probably always be an upper limit for safety and also being able to dance the choreography as intended? You can move the cut off limit further up, and we will still end up with this exact debate at some stage.
  16. But what about partnering? I know the Russian schools in Russia have a maximum weight limit for partner work, to protect the men from injury. It’s not just about having a certain look, it’s also about functionality ? Can someone more knowledgeable weigh in?
  17. Another vote for silky, they don’t fade (we use a wool/silk detergent on the hand wash cycle)
  18. 12yo here, size XS is baggy on her… still growing into the two we ordered (I can’t remember what styles they were, they are two different ones and both are too big)
  19. I see the studio’s side, they are counting on us financially. It’s a tricky one as we are definitely hoping that she can return to dance sooner rather than later, she just really needs a break. I don’t want to say exactly what is going on as I think some people on this forum know who I am…
  20. Hi, My daughter is faced with being signed off dance for a while for medical reasons. We would miss the rest of the term at the very least, hopefully she will have recovered in time for September. We have already paid deposits for summer intensives, which she won’t be able to attend either. That’s not ideal but we can live with that as the deposits have not been too extortionate. We have however not paid our dance school for the rest of the term yet, as we pay on a half termly basis. Under normal circumstances we have to give half a terms notice, which I think is standard, but in this case obviously that won’t be possible. We stand to lose a lot of money if the studio insists we pay for the remainder of the term so I wanted to ask for your input with this. Do we just have to pay up, or how would your schools handle this?
  21. We heard that too. Only vocational students came off the list as far as we know
  22. I can’t locate this button, where is it? I only have the option to view our spring registration, I can’t amend it? If I start another registration it says I’ve already registered…
