                She goes to Crestar at Marine Parade. The teacher was recommended by a friend. I don't know much about ballet so cant judge but dd enjoys her lessons so far. I don't really have plans for dd to be a ballerina (her main focus at the moment is in sports) so we skipped this year's Grade 1 exam cos she doesn't have time to commit to the extra practises.

                Her ballet teacher has said that she's keeping up fine with the class though so she can move on to the Grade 2 class and we can consider sending her for the Grade 2 exam next year if she's ready.

                    Is there anyone heard about StepUp learning and dance? my friend introduce me there since she already sign up her kids for dance.

                    They have doing promotion now, free goodly bag and rebate for the fee if you bring friends along.

                    I think I may try to bring my girl down for more information.
