  1. An old thread but felt I should update it as I did read this and wasn't sure my DD should go for it. I believe the company had hired a nice venue for auditions to accommodate more dancers and my daughter really enjoyed the audition. She also said the town was nice, with lots of outdoor cafes etc. They stayed in an Airbnb v near the centre. Haven't been there myself but she had quite a different experience.
  2. Has anyone had experience of GC Dance Events (Italy) as a successful route to company positions?
  3. DD is currently applying to companies all over. I find it odd that none of the companies list what the pay will be, like you would with any other job. Anyway, a question I'm unsure of, maybe some of you with experience will know, are the Junior Ballet Company positions generally paid positions? I'm assuming they are as they are presented as a job opportunity, but I'm not quite sure...
  4. I’m sure she tried R class at one point and found them too soft. I’ve messaged a couple of people mentioned on here to see what the alternatives are but it’s getting to crunch time with assessments coming up.
  5. Also struggling to get Grishkos, tried so many alternatives and DD just doesn’t like them, she’s always worn Grishko and she likes a hard shoe which fits tightly. Finally found a pair of RP similar but only lasting her a class and also not readily available. She has assessments and end of year show coming up and she’s on her last pairs!
  6. I have Grishko 2007 pointes for sale as bought from various places in bulk and daughter only just noticed they were not the correct sizes for her. So all unworn and in package. P&P £4.00 Royal Mail First class Size 5 xxxxx M = 2 Size 5 x M = 1 All shoes £40, I can send you a Paypal link to purchase.
  7. Great, i'll have a look. I did search before posting but didn't see this one.
  8. Thank you, when she was in associate training / dance classes / monthly training she was easily going through 2x pairs a month (pre Covid). I have some glue somewhere.
  9. A question for parents with daughters at vocational level. I know this is different for each individual but just trying to gauge how many pairs of pointe shoes the average vocational school dancer goes through in a year.
