  1. Congratulation to your son @BalletBoysDad

    As for travel time between Tring and BBA in Rambert @PurplePirouette: the traffic is usually quite quiet- we are leaving Tring at 12.30 (after quick change of leotards) and usually arriving at 13.20 (her class at BBA was starting at 13.40). We might have an issue this year if she is moved up (start at 12.45 and more overlaps), but BBA is very understanding (have been late on couple occasions due to audition or exam practice). We still intend to do both at this moment, but we live close to Rambert. There might be an issue in future, but we cross that bridge when it is a problem. 

    My dd was ENBS juniors too, but as they closed in Chelsea last year she was wait listed and could not continue there any more. 

    Zoe is an excellent dance teacher and yes she teaches two groups (Junior 1a between 10-12.15 and 2a Mids  13.40- 16.00). Other teachers in older BBA groups are amazing too. Furthermore, care and support from BBA you received during lockdown is exemplary. 

     

     

  2. Hi, my DD (now year 5) is doing both, but she is Mids in BBA, so there is not much clash at this moment (well before lockdown). Both are excellent programmes with very nurturing and caring teachers, both with the focus on correct technique, performance and artistry.

    BBA has an excellent online clases during the lockdown.

    So, I guess it depends on timing (if he will be BBA junior or mids) and it might be slightly different for boys (as there is a boys class in Tring, whereas mixed class at BBA). 

  3. DD got waiting list too. I was expected flat no as she will be 10 only at the end of April. Similarly like Mii applied for Summer school, but I guess that one is more difficult because you competing with the rest of the world. Keep fingers crossed.

    They didn’t send any out last Friday and I’m sure they would want to send them out two consecutive days as there were 4 days of auditions. I could be wrong though as from what I have gathered from others,  results usually come out in centre order...which hasn’t been the case this time as Dundee was out today. 🤔

    I do suspect the lady dealing with this might not work on Fri and Mon (as do not recall if any results were released on these days). Secondly, there is still over 600 emails to send (4 days/ about 120 children each day). I think it will be Tuesday next week.

    I certainly hope we get some results today. I’m starting lose sleep (similar to when I can’t sleep because of DD’s RAD exam music going round in my head days before the exam 😂) and I’m out in London tomorrow on a date day with my husband and really don’t want to spend the day refreshing my phone! 😅

     

    Good luck everyone! 🤞

    Similar here. Exam is tomorrow. Would be good to know irrespective of outcome.
