  1. I think my ds and your ds were in the audition together? Feel free to message me ( my ds is currently year 6) will be in the blue group and Jebsen).
  2. Congratulations Everyone! It took me most of the afternoon to process and letting it sink in. My DS has been offered a year 7 place. I am also very pleased about the new programme structure. I have been posting very publicly on here, lol, please let me know if anyone would like to start a whatsapp group for year 7 entry? Congratulations to everyone again for enduring this rollercoaster ride...though I know it is only the beginning..
  3. Yes, my ds is unable to continue unfortunately.
  4. Is 5:30pm when we can stop checking for the evening? Have a great one everyone! Xx
  5. I am still assuming results for boys year7 will be sent by this Friday
  6. I don't have that type of self-control. lol. I see the first couple of lines of an email when it comes without opening it. In case any signs of disappointment shows (not disappointment in my ds at all), I would prefer to tell ds later when I can reiterate how proud I am of him regardless and so maybe I would prefer to be alone, the last thing I want is for ds to think I am disappointed in him (I honestly could not be more proud of his resilience this past year).
  7. Do you all have deadlines to accept other offers? We didn't go to the Hammond, but I have to give notice to ds current school (1 term).
  8. They said two weeks to the parents and to the children on audition day. I trust they will deliver.
  9. LoL, to be fair RBS is still well within their timeframe. It is agony though, even though the chances are so low I still have a tiny glimmer of hope and can't completely move on.
  10. I have just emailed to ask. She said: Results will be sent within 10 working days of the last audition date, which is tomorrow. I will endeavour to get them out as soon as I can.
  11. Hi everyone, I accepted the offer last Thursday with the second email link they said, but just got an email again asking to make sure we accept by the 26th . SO I accepted again, and requested the code again. Anyone else, got a further email? Happy Monday!
  12. My DS thinks some stretches were without shoes at WL and then the entire physio assessment was also with bare feet at WL.
  13. They will have a year 6 class from September as well, some boys were auditioning for a year 6 place.
  14. Thank-you so much. I think it is a sponsorship for boys specifically. Feeling very fortunate it is for 5 years and covers full tuition (does not cover homestays, or accommodation). He really likes YDA.
  15. Yes, ds was also given hamstring stretches by the same teacher but he never mentioned anyone else coming to the studio. At the WlL audition he said when he was face down on the physio table he was almost falling asleep, so who knows what he can remember, lol. He has hyperextended elbows and hypermobile wrists and thumbs. I don't think that would confer any advantage in ballet and the line of the arm in the arabesque can look very weird if he fully extends the elbow). Regarding the lifting the toe assessment, could that also be to look at the arch of the foot (i.e. to exclude flat feet)?
  16. I was also thinking about paying for a private consultation with the ballet physio when all restrictions are lifted (especially as DS is adamant he did not have one as a JA). Ds had a consultation on zoom but I am curious to find out more (and minimize any risk of injury). DS attended the YDA final in London today and though the letter said there would be some physio checks, he just said there were some stretches and no contact (he was awarded a funded place).
  17. Yes, I also wonder how many are yet to be seen in total? I was hoping Elmhurst would be soon too, but I guess not.
  18. My ds said that at finals the AD said maximum 2 weeks to the boys?
