Thank you for that, Anton, and welcome to the forum.  I've moved the thread into Doing Dance, which I think probably has the better audience for it.

 

Incidentally, I see that you refer to "us" and "our": if you are representing a commercial venture, please would you set up a signature as required by our AUP?  The details are here http://www.balletcoforum.com/guidelines/ under "Commerce".

 

Many thanks.
