    @LVC She loved it! She was less nervous this time because she knew what to expect. Even though it’s an audition it’s made to feel like a ‘normal’ ballet class for them and most children came out smiling and positive. Majority wore socks including my daughter, but there were some in tights.

    @LVC My daughter said it was leaps, ballet positions, straddle and they were told to move their arms like a tree in the wind. I’m guessing they are looking at their flexibility, musicality, turn out and measurements.

    @NorthernDanceMum I wouldn’t worry about it. There’s kids who go with Lacey leotards, flowers in there hair etc even though your not supposed to. My daughter’s friend auditioned last year and wore a leotard which was Lacey and they weren’t supposed to wear and got in. So they definitely over look things like that. Everyone looks for different things, but iv been told they are looking at body measurements, musicality and turnout. Some kids maybe amazing dancers but not meet something else they are looking for. Theres no way of really knowing and all your child can do is try their best and if they don’t get in try again the year after. My daughter got a no last year and got to the final round at Northern ballet. I sometimes wonder if maybe she’s too short, as she’s very small for her age x

    My daughter has her audition in May but is really nervous due to getting a no from Northern Ballet and her confidence being knocked. She got a recall after first set of auditions but wasn’t chosen ultimately and whilst she is usually a very resilient child, it has hit her a bit harder than expected. (I think because a close friend of hers got in and they got excited at the prospect of going together) Does the fact that the Northern ballet said no pretty much guarantee the RBS will too? I know there is no way of definitely knowing but I know RBS is the hardest to get into.

    Had a look but they clash with her normal classes.

    @lucy14 It’s a no for us too unfortunately. Feel quite sad this year because she’s worked so hard and really wanted it this year but we’ll try again next year.

    Current JA’s got their reports today so I think it may be tomorrow
  11. Dancing_Mae
    Fingers crossed we find out tomorrow!

    @lucy14 Yeah definetly! But from what I’ve heard, the current JA’s get their results first. I’m really hoping we find out by the end of this week or the beginning of next. My daughter has been asking quite a lot and the anticipation is too much now 😅
  13. Dancing_Mae
    @lucy14 I am also waiting for JA audition results and 12th April seems so far away 😓

    @BalletMummy123 On my email it says we will find out by the 12th April 🤔
  15. Dancing_Mae
    @BalletMummy123 Ah ok! Thank you for this, now I know it’s not coming anytime really soon and I can relax abit 😅 xx
  16. Dancing_Mae
    @DanceDad17 junior associates 😊
  17. Dancing_Mae
    It only took 2 days to get an email about the final audition but wondering if this one usually takes longer? I don’t think I’ll relax until we get it 😅
  18. Dancing_Mae
    My daughter is the same. Went to her audition on 3rd March and was offered the final audition a few days later. Now waiting for results for final 🤞
  19. Dancing_Mae
    Anyone else anxiously waiting on results? Does it usually take a while? Refreshing my emails every hour is probably abit obsessive but my daughter wants it so bad this year and I want it for her.
  20. Dancing_Mae
    If they get in CAT can they do both or just one? My daughter was at the final auditions for associates.
  21. Dancing_Mae
    @BalletMummy123 Yeah I was suprised by how many there were! But then again it said on my letter not to worry about group size, as they place a lot at this age, so not sure what to think… My daughter has asked me two mornings in a row if we have had the email yet
  22. Dancing_Mae
    How’s everyone feeling about the finals?
  23. Dancing_Mae
    My daughter’s abit worried about box splits, as she can’t go to the floor yet. Shes almost there but not quite and she’s worried this will affect her chances. @Diagon This audition is an hour and 15 like the first. Thank you for everyone’s replies! I guess all we can do is wait and see.
  24. Dancing_Mae
    @BalletMummy123 Thank you 😊 Do many get through to final audition?
