  1. DD isn’t at vocational school, but dances 3 times a week and all day Saturday. She has fine, flyaway hair. We’ve found that using spray conditioner on dry hair is a good alternative to hairspray, just water never works for her. Plus she now only washes her hair on a Sunday so it’s ‘dirty’ enough to stay neat for associates on a Saturday, bit grotty looking by Friday but it works for her 😂. At school she only wears it in a loose low ponytail or down, and during the week for her local classes she’ll mix up the hair styles with low bun, plaited bun etc. agree with the other posters who mention fabric hair bands, loose coil and bun net. We only use gel/hairspray for shows, auditions and exams.
  2. DD has been given another year too! So pleased!!!! 🎉🎉🎉 Good luck to everyone!
  3. Current associates are waiting for their assessment results too, same date 29th April.
  4. Once you’re on the northern ballet uniform section, they’re in the accessories tab. Just the associates ones though.
  5. @Balletmad78did you get the handbook? Mine was in my junk email yesterday!
  6. I asked about this a few weeks ago and they said info would be given out at the end of June. I’m sure we’ll hear something this week.
  7. That’s such great news! Especially with the seniors! Well done!!!
  8. Yes! DD has been going for a few years alongside her local RAD class. She really enjoys the classes and will be continuing alongside associates in September. There’s a mixture of children in the classes, some recreational, some very focused. There’s lots of emphasis on technique and strength. At times she finds that she’s done more complex work in her RAD class, but the focus on technique compliments her RAD classes really well. The teachers are lovely and the academy staff are very approachable and supportive. I’d recommend getting your application in ASAP though, the spaces get filled up really quickly!
  9. Any news for those DC’s waiting on reserve lists? 🤞🤞🤞
  10. I’ve heard news of a few junior associate reserves getting places over the last few days. Fingers crossed to those of you waiting!
  11. Yes! She was given a place late last week. She’s delighted!
  12. That interesting, it sounds useful that you’d know you’re a no on the day! Do they need to be strong at Jazz too? My DD is very much a ballet dancer, she’s done a bit of jazz, contemporary etc but never very much.
