Star Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 IM 16, and I started doing istd ballet 1 year ago-I think I have caught up quite well-I am now on grade 6, (the rest of the girls in my class are 14-15). I know that it is not an option to be a proffessional but I love it so much that I want to take more class-I only take one 1 hr class a week and I help out on saturdays. My school also does rad classes but when I asked before they told me that rad was more for the children who had started early . I have looked for some other local schools to try but I have a problem getting to them as my mum wont take me, and they are often at night so I would have to take buses, which worries me especially in winter(the nearest school is about 1/2hr drive away and it is in quite a secluded area)-does anyone have any suggestions? Should I ask again about rad or risk a new-further away school? Quote Link to comment
Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted January 24, 2005 Administrators Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 Hello Star, welcome to the Young Dancers' forum on Ballet Talk for Dancers Even if you are not seeking a career in ballet, one hour of training a week is just not going to get you anywhere. I can't imagine a school even offering anything that is one hour beyond the pre-ballet level. Even beginning adult classes are usually an hour and a quarter, if not hour and a half. And anyone taking ballet seriously at all must have more than once a week! I would look for another school for sure. Quote Link to comment
