yes, no luck yet

Thank you for your comments. I was just hoping about some new info about the Perm state ballet school, as the last ones were in 2012, 10 years ago. I know that the UK students were in Perm since than, maybe somebody will come with comments. Answer for SillySally: yes, my daughter got two offers. I cannot say yet about the differences but for sure, Perm is a classical education, probably a bit old-fashioned, while BIBS is a private, small and already known positively. My daughter tried UKs big schools. Without luck.

Dear members Could you please advice about some organisations, companies or privat funding who will sponsor a privat ballet education? My daughter is from Denmark and got a place in Brussels. Any experience? Thank you for your ideas. Best, Liliya

Thank you!

Dear Allwrong Thank you very much for your long reply, it's what I needed. May I come back with some questions when I needed? Best, Liliya

Dear members Do you have some updates about the Perm state ballet school? How is the social life there for the international students? How many hours of ballet training per day? Is it difficult to follow the academic studies in Russian? What nationalities of international students are now there? The russian ballet teaches have a reputation of being very strict, demanding, less pedagogical and old fashioned in approaching of students, is it truth? Do you know some international students who are in Perm now? Do you know about sponsorship in Russia/ Perm? Does Perm school known internationally or only in Russia? Thank you in advance Liliya

Dear Allwrong, thanks for many details about BIBS. My daughter got a place there from September 2021. May she contact your daughter for some info. especially about housing. I have some questions and will be happy if you could respond on some of them: What is your daughters opinion about teachers there? Do all students get an offer to participate in competitions? Could your daughter do academics at the same time or just ballet? Are there any free French classes in Brussel? Are there many other expenses a part from ballet education? Does your daughter lives alone and cooks for her self? Do students have any social activities after the ballet classes? Does the final diploma after the 3 years of education have some value? I mean international recognised. I think not. Thank you in advance Liliya (Janet says: For security, please use the DM system rather than using your own email addresses on the public forum)
