I’ve just noticed a payment of £89.20 pending to come off my account. To avoid this you have to opt out of auto-renew before 30 days has lapsed. So make sure you do this and remove your card details too. I Didn’t even remember adding them when I set up the account. I just googled how to cancel the subscription and it was really easy - just a few steps. Thought I should mention it in case it affects anyone else!

So the video should still play if they need to watch again. Edited July 9, 2020 by Ballet Dreams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dancermom Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Obviously I don’t know for sure but in my opinion they will have a definite numbered waitlist and won’t need to watch the videos again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pas de Quatre Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 I have no inside knowledge, so this is pure speculation. However I wonder if they have given fewer definite places upfront as Government regulations for dance classes have not yet been published. So they are being cautious in case only a few dancers are allowed in each class. Then if they find they can accommodate more, they will be able to fill places from the waiting list. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dancing unicorn Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 (edited) Exactly Pas de Quatre! Regulations for normal classes, never mind Vocational Schools/Colleges, haven’t been given guidelines yet! I’m in wales and we haven’t even been given the go ahead to go back! It will be a logistical nightmare for them sorting timetables and boarding both on-site and off site! And then new intake for September before they even think about associate classes!! 😱 Edited July 14, 2020 by Dancing unicorn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ended up emailing and they did respond but didnt really give much away in terms of how long the list is and what her chances are! Just that they would contact us if a space became available. I'm none the wiser really but at least I've shown I'm keen (or pushy?!) X 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mum of unicorn dancer Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Do not want to add false hope, but SWL acceptance process last year or for Spring or Summer Intensive this year was slightly different. Whether this is due to IT system change (but new was for SI in place already) or due to unknown unknowns... Keep fingers crossed.🤞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first round of auditions are in January and it is the same audition for Mids and WL, (you select which courses you would like to be considered for) Then the final audition for WL is in March. (This year we were needed for 2 days, for girls- 1 day for boys) Results for WL came out approx a week later and then Mids results came out at the end of March. Most of the vocational ballet schools have delayed this to start in January due to COVID hope this helps xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
