RAD Advanced 2 Classes in East or Central London?

[Sneezy]

I am looking for Advanced 2 classes either after school or on Saturdays, preferably in East or Central London?

If anyone knows of any schools that teach the advanced 2 syllabus please let me know!!

Thank you

Is the RAD HQ too far for you?   You can ask them for a list of schools in the area you need if it is.

Hello Sneezy and welcome to the Forum!

 

I have moved your post to the Doing Dance Forum, where you are more likely to find people who can help.

Thank you Janet McNulty!! and Dance*is*life we have rung RAD HQ  and their list wasn't very helpful. My DD can get there on Saturdays but she cant get there after school.

I imagine that it won't be easy to find a regular school that teaches Adv 2.  Most students seem to study it in vocational schools, because it is very hard to find local schools that offer sufficient classes at that level.  There are non-vocational schools that teach it, but the ones I know of are outside London.

This is a difficult one, particularly for men. There are very few classes anywhere in the country for men at Adv 2. There used to be a class at Central late afternoon on a Saturday but I understand this will not run next session. As far as I'm aware and this was definitely the case when we were looking a year or so ago there were no Adv 2 for men class at RAD HQ.

Yes, sadly Central's RAD classes finished for good at the end of last term.

A male student of mine took his Advanced 2 whilst he was training at Elmhurst.  When he started there I remember saying to him "At last you'll get to do an RAD vocational exam with other boys!"  because I was sure that at HQ there would be two or three boys together. Ha!  He travelled on the train down to HQ from Birmingham and he was the lone male yet again      It's a shame because the syllabus is very rich and demanding and really prepares the young men for professional careers.
