PutYourBooteesOn

Also waiting for Newcastle here but I would be extremely surprised if we hear before Tuesday/Wednesday next week!

I Know o We have a friend who’s a London MA without being a JA and one who’s starting Newcastle this September. another friend turned down Newcastle MA after not being a JA (she went to vocational school instead).... definitely possible!

I’ve made several now. The first couple I adapted patterns for harem pants, extending them up for the body length. Since then I’ve just self drafted them. It doesn’t necessarily save a great deal on the cheapest priced ones but you can buy better quality fleece and more colours etc!

My DD has a y5 place for northern and has auditioned for RBS. She’d do both. She’s in a different programme at the moment but we’d probably drop it *if* she were fortunate enough to get royal, but we’d carry it on for this year if she doesn’t.

Ahh busy little bee! Well done her

Are you back for another round of audition Astrid? I thought DD had already been?!

She had a fantastic time, thanks. she thoroughly enjoyed it and felt she’d done her best, all we can ask of them, isn’t it.... just the long wait now! @Astrid good luck DD for today. @Dancing unicorn hope today goes well for your student!

Group 1 tomorrow for my DD.... SWL last year but not holding much hope for this!

A yes for JAs for my DD x

Ballet boost, chantry, midlands, ballet theatre are all Sundays - BBA and midlands are fortnightly, chantry is monthly if I remember rightly, I don’t know about BTUK.

My DD was in the 9am group... it was huge wasn’t it? I was told by someone from last year that they had their results in two days too so I’ve been antsy, despite their 15th April date! but having now seen that the CAT recall isn’t til 13th April, I guess they’ll maybe hold off the JA outcomes until they’ve done that.... though they could send out for those not old enough for CAT (hopefully!)

My DD goes to ballet boost and has done their summer school for the last few years too. We are really delighted with the quality of the teaching and the day suits us better than York, but lots of her friends do York and she is probably going to go the audition to get a feel for the place. The variety of the teaching is a big plus for a lot of her friends who can’t make jazz/contemporary/conditioning classes otherwise- some BBA centres don’t offer contemporary- but my DD gets a good amount/standard of those anyway. I think both programmes are excellent with great faculty. it largely comes down the varied styles of York v the more classical focus of BBA or if you want the Saturday or Sunday!

Ahhh that’s amazing, congratulations to her! bit gutting here as it suggests we won’t be getting a SWL call if they’ve been done/we’ve not had one! Least I can stop wondering now!

Ballet boost is fantastic

Has anyone had offers of places for the SWL yet? I saw someone previously say they’d had one in 3days and others a few weeks .... I know the odds of a place from it are really small!
