Is my understanding correct that there is a minimum age to take the RAD graded examination? Is the age base on year of birth or strightly by month of birth?


Today, DD receive a form by her ballet teacher recommending her to enrol for Mar 13 Pre-Primary examination but DD just turned 4 and the minimum age is 5 so I am not sure if she qualifies to take the exam.

Between cstd and rad, which is more recognized?

There is a minimum age for RAD graded examination. You may want to refer to the website: http://www.rad.org.uk. As far as I am aware, RAD is pretty strict with minimum age requirement, suggest you speak with the ballet teacher.

cstd vs rad... graded rad is 1 or 2 level higher than cstd.

Hi all, I am letting go of 2 sets of leotards & skirts, in pink…

suitable for N2-P1, depending on your girl’s size…

& around 5-6 pairs of ballet shoes, ranging from size 8-12(i think, need to check)…

If u don’t mind letting your girl, use 2nd-hand items,
I think it’s a good way to cut cost, especially if you are not sure of how long her interest last:)

collection bt batok/hillview/cck area can be arranged.
And welcome to try on with no obligations.
Priority will be given to those who can help to clear all.

PM me if keen… thanks!

Any recommendation for ballet classes around Tao payoh.

Tks!

Hi! If you don't mind sending yr dd to CC for classes, there's one at Toa Payoh West CC. There's a good and experienced teacher there. You may want to call the CC for further info.

Just to share, the studio at the Toa Payoh West CC is pretty small, so there is a limit on the class size. The teacher is also not very open about accepting students halfway in the year (maybe because of the small studio), does not engage the new students and has problems maintaining the discipline during class.
