dasalo:

If you look under the faculty heading, you'll see only Mrs Chan the only full time teacher and the rest are adjunct teachers.


I don't know the 3 Ms what instruments they are teaching but Mr Chan Yoong Han is teaching the violin and he is a member of the SSO and etc ..etc..

Thanks.

Hi Mummies and Daddies,


My 3 year old has been asking me to send her to ballet classes. However, i’m not inclined to her taking ballet and would like her to consider chinese dance as well. Thus, i’ve called up NAFA and got to know the above class. They told me this is the foundation class and the kids will only progress to either ballot or chinese dance 1 year later. I think it’s a good idea as it opens up more options for her and she can choose which one to go to after 1 year.

Going through the threads, i never see any comments on NAFA for their dance classes. I would love to hear any feedback from any parents whom child is attending or has attended the dance classes there.

Thank you!

Hi Chantuan,


Is NAFA one of your options? Actually i have cousins who had been dancing with the Chinese dance class since young, just that they went directly to Chinese dance (skipped the junior dance class) and had great reviews about it. They took since kindy level and one had already graduated at tertiary level. I had attended a few of their performances before and was truly impressed.

doramon,

i’m not sure how’s the ballet class compared to chinese dance. Went to register today and seems like a lot of sign ups for their ballet class (begins only from age 5 onwards)

May I know \"being able to play grade 1 pieces\" is the prerequisite of getting enrolled in Grade 1 course or Grade 2 course? Coz i was thinking if can play Grade 1 piece, then shall go for Grade 2 course already?

[quote=\"JHJC\"]I thought it's base on age? If she is 6 she needs to go for grade one?
Thus I was thinking if I need to go for grade one exam first? :?

No need to go for grade 1 exam first but must be able to play grade 1 pieces well during audition[/quote
