[Guest kitrisomeday]

what are the rewards given to Ms. Brown and Mr. Davis in YAGP? scholarships? contracts? moolah? I can't find this info on their website.

Scholarships for all except the Senior Grand Prix winner, who gets a contract to ABT Studio Company.

When doing Youth America Grand Prix, there are many variations to choose from and it is very hard to know what all of them include. I was told to select 3 or 4 variations I liked and my teacher would help me decide which one to learn but I don't know much about any of the variations. Would anyone know which variations would be good for a jumper and turner? I need to chose soon. Thanks!

Haha! Alot! How about the first variation in Paquita with the entrechat six? Or, Esmerelda for a turner...or, or, or, haha the options are endless

[ddm3]

I think Gamzatti would be a good choice.

Take a look at La Fille Mal Gardee variations. Good luck.

[Victoria Leigh]

You need to look at as many ballets as possible. I would start with Paquita.

Looking at videos of the different variations can be a great help. Perhaps you can buy some, or borrow a friend's, ask your teacher for videos, go to the library, etc.

At my studio our teachers pick the solos for the students based on their strengths. Maybe you could ask your teachers for suggestions since they have so much more experience.
