My DD did an intensive IF course before her exam at the rad HQ, five Sundays in a row. Quite a few adults on the course. Next intensive is over the summer. Good luck all, it's wonderful that you're all dancing. I've got two left feet and can only manage a plié

The rad project B one is relaxed re. 7yo doing the workshops but won't be able to do the comp. Cecchetti associates run a young associate programme for 7yos. Check out their website. Central do do boys move day- their last one was beg of Feb unfortunately. For workshops coming up, if you think they have the ability, drop jo Hurst an email. They're always very accommodating Hope this helps

Dance Floor for sale in original storage roll
HopelessMummy replied to FlexyNexy's topic in For Sale / Wanted
Is this still available? If so, how much please? -
It depends. If you're up for a challenge and doing well with your solos, why not speak to your parents and teacher and see what they think. Without being rude, I think it's much better to excel at fewer dances than to be mediocre at more. If you are doing All England and qualifying all, why not try another style? The thing I would say, is that the more dances require more commitment, time, costumes, money and not always on the same day so you may find yourself going to a festival for four separate days. If you excel at ballet, contemp and neo classical are obvious choices. If tap and song and dance is more your bag, jazz might be a nice one to go for. Good luck

DON QUIXOTE - ROYAL BALLET AUTUMN 2023
HopelessMummy replied to capybara's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
I loved it. I loved the way the ROH was made more accessible. I don't like the snobbery about the etiquette. Ballet should be accessible to all. I had a great time. The dancing was fabulous and the ballet a master class in mime. Only gripe was that I wish Joe Sissens had a bigger role last night. Well done ROH and Royal Ballet. -
Sorry for delay. Half term. Malvern came out on top!

My dd has pretty much done most of the intensives out there (incl rbs x2) and rbs doesn't rank as her favourite

There are a lot of lawyers who used to dance. You can always tell who they are because they manage to swan around and move like gazelles

Sizing question about Bloch and 1st Position ballet flats
HopelessMummy replied to invisiblecircus's topic in Doing Dance
First position tends to be true to size but worth getting one size up. They defo shrink in the wash! -
Was thinking of taking my little ones to this. Does anyone know what I can expect please? There doesn't appear to be allocate seating or anything- are there performances on the main stage?
