  1. Results for White lodge Bath audition are out - it was an expected no for us. 😥
  2. Results are out from Elmhurst auditions last Tuesday. It’s a no for us 😥.
  3. Thank you for the encouragement and support as always. of course we will still audition for mids - just know it’s a long shot. She was a JA, then fell out of love with ballet and is now beginning to love it again. It is def a rollercoaster ride .
  4. Waiting list here too! Im taking it as a no. Also makes me wonder weather it is worth attending the Mids audition?! I didn't tell my daughter I was applying for Summer School for her. I figured that way she wouldn't be disappointed if it was a no. Glad I didn't now as I won't have to tell her anything and she will carry on with christmas in blissful ignorance! Well done to those with a yes x
  5. Thank you - how long is the course work? Ie is it a huge undertaking? Do you know how much of the course work/ interview counts? Sorry for all the questions , just trying to work out if my dd should do it and I can’t find any info online and not many schools do BTDA. Any info would be hugely appreciated!
  6. Thank you so much. My daughters teacher has never taught it before and is worried it will be too hard! I personally think having not taught it before she is over thinking it and my DD will be fine! I just couldn’t find any information on it. Thank you again.
  7. Hi I was wondering if any of your DC had taken the intermediate exam with BTDA. I understand it involves doing some coursework and an interview. Could anyone enlighten me as to what this entails? Thank you x
  8. If you look on Elmhurst and RBS website they both hold audition insight days. You can go along and the children get a chance to do a class that gives them an insight as to what an audition would be like. Worth doing.
  9. Would you mind messaging me the details as I am looking for somewhere to stay and that sounds perfect?! Thank you
  10. Ok so typically I have left accommodation to the last minute!! Any secret gems any one knows of to stay at? Thank you x
  11. Thank you. I guess we will take a mixture! Still need to book accommodation!
  12. Please excuse me if this is a silly question! Do they have to wear navy leotards for all three days? Thank you.
  13. Can you send me photos of any of the s or m leotards that are left and the warm up shorts. Thank you x
  14. Yes - I’ll be the one with the very shy daughter!!
  15. Thank you - just looking at booking accommodation now! She is very excited.
  16. Hi, I was just wondering if anyone was going to dance forward this summer. My DD is and I wondered if anyone is going or has been. I haven’t really heard much about it and am thinking I maybe should have picked a different one for her??
  17. Hi, yes I have recently spoken to my DD school and they have given her permission to have one pm a week off school for lessons.
  18. Any yoga mat is fine. Well done on a place. I bought a yoga mat in her favourite colour and she happily carried it herself!
  19. Hi, my daughter is in exactly the same position as yours. She just didn’t want to leave home at 11. She has friends that are at Elmhurst and RBS but her heart wasn’t in it. We are doing the training we can locally and will reassess later. Her school have authorised her to have one afternoon off a week in order for us to travel to have a private lesson with a fabulous teacher. They have been very supportive as we live quite remotely and to get quality teaching I have to travel. But meanwhile she is getting a broad education and time at home which was right for her at the moment. Although as with most nearly teens what she wants changes on a daily basis!!
  20. Gosh this is making me nervous and we haven’t even had our audition yet! My daughter’s audition is on the 31st!
  21. I have just looked at the Elmhurst website and the audition dates and forms are up!! BUT it looks like this year they are not inviting everyone to preliminary. It says not to send audition fee as the director will choose from photos and only those invited will be seen and therefore pay. Bit worrying as I am awful at taking photos!!
  22. Just wondering if anyone is planning on going to this? Don't know much about Ballet Boost but it sounds interesting.
