littleballerina 94 Posted April 7, 2015 Hi everyone, I'm in the lucky position of being able to choose which summer schools to attend this year- i am booked in to attend OPES for a week, and the Urdnag pre-audition course. I am also choosing between the Northern Contemporary summer school, the National Dance company of wales summer school, or a week at London Studio Centre on either the contemporary week or the advanced ballet week. I was wondering if anyone had any reccomendations about these courses or which one may be the most beneficial, or what the wales or northern courses are like? With a week of mostly ballet at OPES, and one of musical theatre at Urdang, i'm not sure what would be the best choice, or the more 'serious' course. Thanks to anyone who can help lb xx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Twiggy 22 Posted April 8, 2015 I love Nscd it feels like a little family and there is a showing in the theatre which is really good. Teaching is of a high standard and I get a lot out of it every time I'm there. Xxx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
littleballerina 94 Posted April 8, 2015 Ana- week 2,you? I could possibly do another week there aswell but it think it would be better to experience all the different styles possible as I'm auditioning next year? xx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
