Hi Emma,

Is it too late to apply for this?

My daughter attended the audition today but seemed to be grouped with much older children. Can anyone tell me how the classes were organised? She did not know a lot of the steps and came out feeling quite resigned. She is 10yo and does Grade 4

Hello, I went on the grade of a child and your daughter was on the cut off age.

As she was grade 4 I put her in the group of ages 10 - 13. Some of the girls were very tall. In any audition the class will leave some under challenged and some over as we are really looking at the physicality of a child and their potential to train well. Its a shame she felt resigned as I never wish that to happen but if I had put her with the 8 year olds at grade 1/2 I am sure you would have felt she was in the wrong group too?!

Please do contact me if you wish to discuss this further. Its an audition process that unfortunately is never going to keep everyone happy and if they are not used to learning free work, can make it seem hard. 

Hope this helps x

Thank you for the reply. Wow I can't believe it they are so tall for 13! It helps to know why they were in the same group and I will explain that to her. I think she was just a bit in awe of how well they all danced.
