  1. We are in our third year......never had any written homework from Leeda JAs!!!!
  2. Ah yes....all those stretches that Miss Cara and Miss Hatton tell their students to do at the end of the class when their body is warm enough, so they don't injure themselves!!! My dd has now go to the point of sitting quietly doing a bit f point n flex etc and listening to her music. Good luck!!!!
  3. My daughter had chicken pox on the day of her audition in Leeds. There was only London left so they offered a spot in one of the auditions down there. Day trip to Covent Garden 🙂
  4. Thank you! I always let her decide.....I know nothing about dance so I am quite happy to let her decide with the advice of her teachers too. She is still swaying more to Elmhurst. We shall see!
  5. She has. I left it up to her to decide and after speaking to her teacher she said even f it was for the experience she wants to go....never been to WL so why not eh?
  6. Yep Manchester I have one very shocked but very happy DD too!!
  7. Omg!!!! Dd is through!!! Actually in shock after her experience!!
  8. Oh and she is still a RBS JA on saturday morning. And does a contemporary class and graded ballet class at local dance school. If she ends up staying at CAT next year I think we will drop her local school though.
  9. My dd is in Level 1 as Year 6 at school. Have to admit that driving in to Leeds on a Tuesday and Thursday is a bit of a nightmare with traffic and the awful parking at the moment. But we manage ok. She is there those nights 5 til 7.30pm. Then Saturday 12.30 til 4.30pm.....but it it has now been extended til 6pm as they are rehearsing for end of year show. Intensive during holidays, and a couple of Sundaya too for extra rehearsals. But she loves it and has become so much of a stronger dancer.
  10. They told us the video was to watch back if they wanted to check something again.
  11. She has Elmhurst finals so all is good . That's was a completely different first round audition experience. Huge studio and parents got to see the last 10 minutes of it too. Not at all impressed with RBS. I will be emailing her JA teacher who will most likely be really sad about it as she is so lovely and supportive of everyone. Other parents said the same things as we were leaving
  12. So my dd well and truly hated the audition today. 1. The Manchester JA teacher coming in and speaking to all the JAs she teaches. Ignores all of the rest of us. 2. In the lesson the teacher uses numbers for students she doesn't know, and names for ones she does. That's really off putting for a 10 year old. 3. Have so many students in the room that at the barre she kicks the child to the right when lifting her leg, and cant lift leg to left as barre on wall next to her is in the way. No space to shuffle along either. 4. Room so hot and not being able.to drink. If she doesn't get through to finals.she doesn't even want a MA place now as she hated it that much. Would be interesting to hear what others thought.
  13. My dd auditioned in London for a place at Leeds. Our lessons are at Yorkshire Dance
  14. My daughter is one of the Level 1 CAT students there tomorrow. She has to do thr same thing 5 times!!!!!
  15. Never went to the CAT open day. But my daughter is on the scheme in Level 1.and loves it. Miss Cara is fab, so they will have lots of fun I'm sure.
  16. Same size I think.......the only difference is an extra sheet with the yes letter asking for finance details.
  17. We are auditioning for WL too and final are beginning of March.
  18. How long have they said for results? I hated the long wait for the JAs!
  19. It's a letter by post. Ours arrived on the Monday after the audition on the tuesday. But I know some people got theirs quicker with it arriving on the saturday!
  20. Mmmmm Leeds has 32 lessons term time between mid sept and mid june. I know some centres have the option of 24 lessons. But it is def more than once a month!
