Hey Red Shoes Wow! I bet that was amazing ??? Yes, I think that's what I look like! Petrified ! Now you have explained it too me I understand. I was just confused as the teacher had said not to overdo it and have a pleasant look about you but I didn't know what she meant or how to.achieve that. . Now I know I can smile and won't lose marks for showing my teeth, I think I will relax a bit and hopefully enjoy it! I don't know the dance name were doing in Grade 5 but it's kind of pretty and Twee, i would say. Thank you again for all your advice. Really means a lot. Best wishes

Hiya Oh this is great. Thank you so much. I seem to naturally know what to do for character dance I was just scared about overdoing it in the other areas. That makes perfect sense and I will go and practise with some facial expression. My teacher keeps saying I look worried lol, well I am nervous, but I think the problem has been that I just don't know what to do with my face! This is very helpful. Thank you again !

Hi Balletchick Thank you so much! That's perfect. Yes it's grade 5 RAD. That makes a lot of sense so I can now factor that into my practice sessions. Thanks for replying.

Oh thank you so much! This is just what I needed 💗💗

Hi Jan Thanks so much for replying and for the info. Where do I find the tags? Sorry, I haven't been on a forum before. Do I write my question again when I have the tags? Thank you re the exams! I'm so nervous! Thank you Farli

Hello. This is is my first post so not sure if I’m doing it right but here goes.... I am a mature adult taking my RAD Grade 5 exam very soon. I am worried about my facial expressions! I am used to performing on stage and also competing at another discipline, however, I asked my teacher if I am allowed to smile during the exam and she said yes but not a full smile or over the top. Can anyone tell me what I should do. Am I allowed to smile with teeth showing or reign it in to more of a grin? It’s stressing me out as I don’t want to look miserable or worried but also don’t want to overdo things, I absolutely love dancing and could smile all the way through but not if it’s going to cost me marks. This is my first exam since I was little so I am really nervous but also so passionate, I really want to do my best. Sorry it this is a stupid question! But thank you in advance for any advice best wishes Farli.
