I’m so shocked at this discussion . My daughter attended finals at the named school and can lip read very well , she watched the artistic director say “she’s the wrong shape and very masculine for a girl “ luckily it wasn’t about my daughter , but if it had been she would of walked out , after this we withdrew out application . Shocking that these young dancers are put through so much upset x

Hi if you speak directly to the shop who supply The Hammond uniform they will probably be able to help then at least you know your buying the correct uniform .
Hope that’s helpful , I’d willingly sell my daughters but she likes to keep it 😳she’s a current year 11 x -

Hi WrapsnBows , when we began our journey at The Hammond , my daughter got offered a place but she was on waiting list , we was offered bursary , but 3 weeks before the term started she was offered MDS . Overjoyed was an understatement , and Thursday she just found out she’s got a DADA to continue her training with them. I know it’s a very scary time but hang in there .... dreams do come true .
Good luck 👍👍- 4

If you could get to Birmingham look at Nicholsonschoolofdance , excellent teacher ex BRB , would give you honest opinion, and comes very highly recommended , well worth thinking about . Hope your daughter finds her way and follows her passion . She helped my daughter and we still have private’s when she’s home .

Hi this is a long shot , but my friends daughter has a ballet recommendation for Sat 16th feb in Manchester , her teacher has not booked any tickets and they are now sold out , she’s so upset that she can’t watch , has anyone got or knows of anyone who has spare tickets ??
Thanks for reading .

Hi ,
i would agree with everyone who is saying to try it out , if you don’t try you won’t know , and auditions are a great way to gain experience if she is thinking of progressing and auditioning for vocational schools.
Its a tough one because you want to protect them , but also support their dream .
I’m sure her ballet teacher could discuss it further with you both and take it from there , they make lots of friends throughout their journey and I’m sure they enjoy it too, even if us parents are left stressed 😩.
I wish you both good luck and welcome to the rollercoaster world of dance.
Enjoy .

Hi All,
Congratulations to everyone on all their amazing results, but don’t give up too soon .
My DD got accepted for Hammond last year and we got funding 3 weeks before the term started , so hang in there dreams really do come true. We were on holiday when we got the call and they had to tell my DD as she wouldn’t believe me , and she said until she saw the letter of an offer then she wouldn’t believe it.
She had a few strange looks in the shop we was in as she burst out crying 😢.
Good luck to everyone and if I won the lottery I’d pay for everyone .

I just wanted to share our fantastic news , we got a call Friday afternoon from The Hammond to offer my DD an MDS for sept . She is goin into year 9 , to say she was excited is an understatement she cried her eyes out in shop on holiday!! Very excited DD now.

Hi guys ,
ive been reading this thread and I can definitely feel for you all .
my daughter is PS1 at Hammond now and loves it .
It wasn’t a straightforward journey , she applied for Sept 17 as a year 9 place 😳. We knew this was tough joining an already established year group but went anyway , 2 days after audition we got offered place , and back then she didn’t need to do recalls She got waiting list , lots of tears and stress but we got through it , and 2 weeks before they started back in September we got the call giving her MDS , we were shocked excited and even had more tears as she didn’t believe it , lots of rushing around and off she went .
3 fabulous years and then more auditions for upper school , luckily she got a DADA immediately and loves every minute she’s there .
My message is don’t give up hope , hang in there even if it doesn’t happen it’s never a no it’s just not yet .
Good luck to you all x
