    Natalia Kremen I may suggest. We do not live in UK but she has helped my DD in her ballet journey.

    Stress fracture cannot be diagnosed in xray but in MRI. And if it s a fracture or even a stress edema, the only treatment is to REST minimum of 5-6 weeks, the first 2-3 weeks not even walking on it. I am not a doctor but my DD faced and treated several times. I advice you to have an MRI as soon as possible, and follow RICE (rest, ice, compress, elevate) on a routine. Bone broths (prepared at home, cooked for 24 hours) have helped a lot in the diet as well. Daily drink a small cup.

    thank you.

    Hello. I found this conversation back from 2013 but just wondered if still you know anyone studying there at the moment. It is still not very much known in Europe, most probably because of the language barrier. My DD passed the audition and will probably be the first Turkish girl to be educated there. She learnt French for this. We do not know what to expect, it is a journey ahead of us.

    Dear Sam, My DD is accepted to CNSMDP and will start in September. We are very excited about it. Though known not famous as other named ones around Europe, I understand that it is important in France.

    German ballet schools are mostly Vaganova based; since the tradition of teachers come from Russian teachers; for ex John Cranko Stutgart, Hamburg, Munich, partially Berlin. Hungary, Bulgaria, Turkey these all study in Russian style.
  7. Derin's Mom
    This is not purely Vaganova as far as I know.
  8. Derin's Mom
    very much appreciated, thank you. She has tried repetto when she was 11 and was not happy but since she has grown much then she may give it a try, if freed is not possible.
  9. Derin's Mom
    really helpful, thank you.
  10. Derin's Mom
    Thank you for the help. We currently live in Istanbul and have access to certain models of Freed. But she will be in Paris in summer for POB SI and we will do our best to make a proper fitting there. I do not know what "wineglass maker" is though?
  11. Derin's Mom
    She is in the state conservatoire in Istanbul, but she will be moving to Paris for 9th grade.
  12. Derin's Mom
    Now in Istanbul but she will be in Paris next season.
  13. Derin's Mom
    She will start at Paris Conservatoire National Superior and in her current school in Istanbul some brands are not allowed either. But we will see how well she will fit in Freed. They monitor the kids and prefer them to wear Freed as they have told me, we will see in September for sure.

    My DD will have to wear Freed in her new vocational school, she has been wearing Grishko Smart with a M shank till now. She is used to be trained in Vaganova so harder shanks worked better for her. But now, she will continue her education in French style and they require softer shanks for more efficient foot work. Does anyone have experience in both Grishko and Freed so that they may give some advices? She has narrow feet and medium insteps. What would be good model options in Freeds?

    Typical travel insurance I suppose, since we are required to get a visa this insurance comes along with it.

    My DD has done the summer school twice and also did the school auditions at the age of 12 as well. She raised up to the final round but did not make it. She is now to continue her education in CNSMDP in Paris. She is accepted to the school, prep class. She is coming from the Russian style and tells me that the major difference is the use of arms and feet speed. French is more fluent compared to Russian style, where as the Russian style is more precise on technique.
  17. Derin's Mom
    Yes we have done it, last year in May. My DD raised into the final 12 but was not accepted amongst the 3 chosen. But anyhow, it was a great experience for her, as she says. Then this year, she applied to Conservatoire National Superior and received a place there. So proud of her.
  18. Derin's Mom
    My DD will be doing it for the second time, attending from Turkey. She also experienced the school auditions as well. She will be in advance class. Who else will be there?
  19. Derin's Mom
    thanks, we do not have Russian pointe here in Turkey. So a fitting for that is not possible. But noted.
  20. Derin's Mom
    Thanks. We know both. DD did not try Freed, she used Grishko for 2 years and now using Bloch Balance and said she was happy with them. I suppose the shank (hard) was not correct this time. She actually had a very good fitting in Bloch Paris. And said she was content with them...
  21. Derin's Mom
    I only wish we could find a dance scientist here in Istanbul... but will check the addresses, and see my chances when we go to UK sometime.
  22. Derin's Mom
    Last time her treatment lasted for 6 weeks as well. We’ll see this time and really hope she gets better sooner. pointe shoes are our nightmare, or were. With these new ones she was actually happy but my assumption is, the shank was hard for her and she was not ready for it yet. What were your DD’s shoes before and what did she switch to?
  23. Derin's Mom
    Thank you very much. I prepare bone broth at home as well to support but will check for other diets as well. for the correction of movements, she will understand better than i do :)) so I’ll speak with her.
  24. Derin's Mom
    Hello and thank you for the reply. You are correct. She is a vocational student. We do not live in UK. We live in Istanbul, Turkey. There are good physios but not specificly working with dancers. So there is always an empty space remaining in therapies (in my point of view). She does pilates as well and that coach is a former sportsman, works on her core strength. but somehow appearantly there is something missing, otherwise she wouldn’t be facing it twice in 2 years time.

    We intend to see an endocrynologist as well.
