Mummy twinkle toes

Theme from Morse is a lovely piece of music. Friend used it for her A level solo. It was very successful. My dd did a solo to leaving Walbrook road from the film Rainman. This is good for lyrical/contemporary. Depends with genre you want and your strongest attributes. How long does it need to be?

Years ago....they used to have a classical course. You had to be advanced (old grade) to audition and elementary level for Mt. Perhaps with new teacher they may have these types of aspirations again.

Dd intermediate Rad, passed elementary legat and studies grade 5/6 and if cecchetti. She is in year 7. She is also an associate. Cecchetti does have more arms/positions of body than RAD. Grade 2 cecchetti would seem a little low for an 11 year old but if she is new to it perhaps the teacher needs her to learn the basics before progressing her.

Dd decided to audition in the end. Audition in January. Good luck to those waiting for news

Try Wilko's. Dd1 likes full hairnets so she can wrap it around several times. You get 2 for a pound. Lion bun nets are on Amazon :3 for 80p.

Thank you everyone. I will ring them????

Anyone?

Hi all, Just wondered if anyone knew what time Yr 8 mids rbs in Birmingham is?

Returning to the original post I would check the school's prospectus. What does it state about choosing options? It would be useful to quote their own literature against them. If geography is an option they cannot make it compulsory. These days schools should be flexible about a pupil's education. Some children will access college courses as an option. At dcs school they can choose Pe or do a Btec first in Fe, as an example. Good luck with it. If the school is LEA maintained you can speak to education dept at council. If it is a church school then discuss with the school gouvenors. They cannot make you move schools although you may wish to.

Dd2 has similar feet to the op's dd. She wears satin full sole by Roch Valley. They support her foot well and she does not curl her toes. She wears Capezio in leather.

Thanks for the replies. I will share with Dd1 and see what she wants to do????

Are many people applying for yr8? Dd is Elmhurst associate but we also know they do not really assess out until yr9. I believe Wl has same policy? Is it then worthwhile or should we wait for yr9? Not sure if there would be any capacity and funding. Dd is undecided but I said it is good experience and gets her seen again. Opinions please.

Dancique in Birmingham have a good range.

Dd2 is a d fitting in Clarks. Capezio daisy leathers in narrow fitting have suited her. She tried on lots of different styles and these were the best for her.

I don't think the school's mind. Rbs jas run in several locations whereas Tring and Hammond only offer their associates in their own locations. My dd is an Elmhurst associate and several of the younger ones do the Elmhurst course and then change into Ja leotard for Rbs every Saturday. The staff at Elmhurst don't seem to bat an eyelid. Many jas will wear the leotard but it is what your dd feels comfortable in. Good luck

Hi ballet sister. Eyb have videos on YouTube which will show the costumes. Swan Lake is on there and they tend to use the same costumes for a particular ballet. Dd1 just did Sleeping Beauty and all the costumes were lovely. Her friend was cast as a Russian dancer and they wore character shoes for this.

I know ADs like uniformity but some variation in heights could be tolerated. 3cm is a very narrow range!!After all if you lined up actual swans there would be height differences.

My dd does Legat and Rad. She prefers Legat but has no issues switching between the two.

Amazon sold nude bra and knickers. They also sold nude bodysuits to wear under leotards.

The teacher could have had a discussion about progress with him. She could have kept Gabrielle for 10 minutes and show her Dad. The Dad may not understand that ballet requires repetition of movements. Both over-reacted.

Just got back from Tring ss. Very enjoyable watching classes. Dd1 really took to commercial and really tried with the hip hop. I agree there was less ballet than I thought but it depended what group you were allocated into. Well worth the money.

Hi Plié 22. My dd dances with Moya Vahey in Cowbridge. She has an adult class Tuesday's which a man attends. She has taught several boys/men. There is a male only class on Saturdays.

Dd1 doing Tring ss and loving it. She is enjoying the variety of styles and tonight they are taking her to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Both Dds did Central intensive days. Dd1 loved hers. Dd2, who is 9, enjoyed jazz, found the ballet easy but struggled with Pilates.

Thanks Flora. Dd will enjoy anyway but it would be the icing on the cake.

So sorry your Dd had that experience Stardancer. It is unusual as Balletcymru are normally excellent. Hugs to your Dd???? and hope she enjoys her York ss
