Too late for this year, but heads up the School of American Ballet in NYC now has a summer intensive for ages 10-12. My son attends year round and the training is excellent. I'm sure they do an amazing summer program, and it's only 1 week for juniors. Consider it for next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 10year old daughter is super excited to have been accepted as well. Would anybody want to meet up ahead or at the start of the week 3 and get the little dancers to get to know each other? It will be her first residential and she is a little bit nervous about that. My DD is 11years old and it will be her first residential as well. It would be great to meet up beforehand so they have a familiar face when they get there. It depends a bit on logistics of how far away we are from each other.

Lilidance Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Thank you all for your advice about an another si for my daughter. Does someone knows if they ask for photos or videos for Malvern ?

MamaFrosty Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 They only ask for a headshot at Malvern, it’s non selective so there’s no need for photos/videos 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babyballerinamum Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Apologies if I’m repeating a question but I can’t see it - does anyone know if WL places are ever offered off the back of the SI? I couldn’t work out why else they’d ask on the form if you were interested but it surprised me. Thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StillSewingShoes Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 On 11/03/2022 at 15:14, NYC said: Miami Ballet in Florida takes 10 year olds and it's excellent. The video audition deadline is March 15 and it runs the first week of August. It's by the beach and a fast train ride to Disney World so your daughter may enjoy the adventure. I haven't found many intensives in Europe that take young children. We also applied to Paris Opera Ballet as they take young ones but the deadline is passed. Haven't heard yet on results and there appears to be no forum here for it, so unsure how popular it is. @NYC - we heard from Paris Opera this morning and are considering it, but my daughter is older - 15.
