  1. My daughter was on the waiting list and is now going to week 2! So she’s very happy! just wondering do they send out a list of what to pack and a timetable too? also how is it to get to from London!
  2. We applied for week 1 or 2 as my daughter’s vocational school breaks up first week of July! And are on the waitlist
  3. Just wondering what everyone’s experience of Ballet Boost is like! My DD has just done a 3 day Easter Intensive with them and I’m just curious how others have found it!
  4. Yes my daughter can do week 1 or 2 residential so hopefully she will get a place!
  5. Ah ok, that’s a shame I’m surprised there’s not as Germany is quite large!
  6. Currently DD is doing Ballet Boost for Easter, I had looked at Malvern and also Moorland too! We can do Central but wanted DD to experience a residential as she is day school for vocational
  7. How likely is it that you will get on the Yorkshire Ballet Seminar Summer Intensives if you are put on the waiting list! My dd has been put on the waiting list and I’m just wondering wether or not to book elsewhere for summer
  8. I was wondering if anyone had any experience of intensives in Berlin! We have family there so thought we might be able to join staying with them and my DD doing an intensive course while we are there!
  9. My DD originally wanted to go to mainstream secondary! She hated it and realised that she wanted to be with like minded pupils! Fast forward to her currently in Year 8, she successfully auditioned for a place at YDA and started in January! She absolutely loves it, I can’t say it hasn’t be hard as it’s a massive change for us all but I can say she is incredibly happy at YDA and we are really happy with the school too! If you are close enough definitely look at it!
  10. I didn’t apply for the bursary for my DD as I was worried that they might not adept her on the summer course! We are still waiting to hear too!

    YDA

    Thank you 😊 I think I’m more nervous than my daughter!

    YDA

    My DD has an audition for YDA for mid way entry for year 8! Can anyone advise what to expect for a audition give any advice about auditions for vocational schools as all we know that it will be a class for the audition, this would be the first audition my DD has done for a vocational school place! I think I’m more nervous than she is as I know how much she really wants this!
  13. Unfortunately they have closed down!
  14. Hi, thanks I will have a look, my DD only wants a barre for practising at home as she does a lot off lessons in class, I had a look at the Harlequin ones but definitely can’t stretch to that amount. Great that it works on wood floors and good for pointe too
  15. Hi, my DD has asked for a home ballet barre for Christmas, can anyone recommend one please as there seems to be quite a difference in price! Thanks
  16. Hi, can I ask how your daughter finds the same class/year sizes please? We are seriously considering YDA as we are London based and my DD doesn’t want to board!
  17. Hi, my daughter now wants to go to vocational school as she is finding mainstream secondary not right for her! We live in London so have been looking at two day schools in London for her YDA and ArtsEd but we do have family up north and had actually been thinking about moving back near family, so both The Hammond and Moorland could be options too. I was wondering if anyone has any feedback on both schools and where do pupils go to afterwards. This is all very new to me and feeling quite overwhelmed by it all!
  18. Hi, I have been looking for a vocational school for my daughter but she doesn’t want to board and all the schools are too fat to travel to from where we live in London! I’ve just seen this school online as even with searching couldn’t find a vocational school for my 12 year old, it seems to tick the boxes for her but having read the ofsted report which wasn’t great I am a bit worried. Also I can’t download the fees online too?
  19. Hi we are hoping to move to Didsbury or Chorlton, my daughter has just auditioned for CAT at the Lowry and I was advised if she’s successful to carry on her ballet training alongside it too! I think we’ve missed most deadlines for associate courses for September this year which is a shame
  20. Has anyone auditioned for this? I’m just wondering when they will let you know the outcome from the audition? We were advised If my daughter was offered a place that she should continue her ballet training alongside it too!
  21. Hi, we are looking to relocate to Manchester from London hopefully before September! My daughter currently trains at Central School of Ballet plus a local ballet/dance school to us where she is doing her prevocational course, does anyone have any recommendations for dance schools in the area where they have associate classes or prevocational courses as she would like to continue her training when we move! Thanks
