Now that would be amazing. Doesn't an ex Hammond dancer who was in my son's year dance with Alvin Ailey company?

Am sure your beautiful daughter will be fab Angel and they will grab the opportunity to have such a beautiful dancer with both hands. Are they allowed to do any company like Phyllis Bedells. I have never asked.... Mind you, they are kept very busy...

Happy viewing

Too true, Tabitha. My dd was at an audition for a short term contract in Copenhagen at the weekend and hundreds were invited...all of a great standard...and 5 were kept behind. It is soul destroying. I realise the journey is worthwhile for the journey's sake...but at a high cost when there is so little likelihood of employment at the end and often at such a great financial cost to the families. I believe we are training too many dancers and that many of them are set for disappointment at the end of it all....not that I do not value the skills and qualities that dance offers them along the way.

They may as well as they have paid for the audition and probably the hotel and, for some, Elmhurst might be their first choice. It's always good to know what your options are if lucky enough to have multiple offers

My then Year 9 (at vocational school) daughter was lucky enough to do this course last year and loved every minute of it. They covered a lot in just a few days and the faculty was fab! Lots of encouragement and advice. Thoroughly recommend it to everyone.

They do not telephone any more so nos and yesses hear at the same time. It was lovely when they did phone. We heard on the motorway on the way back from the audition. Could have been dangerous:)

My younger dancing lad followed his sister into ballet. He showed no early promise, scoring 45% in his RAD grade 1. He gave up shortly after that! A year or so later he went with his brother and sister to try out a jazz clAss. His brother didn't start but the other 2 did and then started to take ballet at the same school. Something had changed cos within the year he had scored 91% in his grade 2 and was an RBS ha. He was lucky enough to be offered a place at Tribg Park... A happy school with great training... Last year he was offered the chance to train in Londonand is enjoying the independence that brings! I often wonder what would have happened had he hated the jazz class!!
