Those beginning like pre-primary, primary are quite fun.
But as progress higher & higher, is tougher

My girl's class all took a year to practise for Grade 3 although there are a handful who did not meet the Tr's standard to take the examination. Generally for her class, there is a reduction of about 10 points for their Grade 3 exams as compared to Grade 2 exams.

Hi,

I’m new to this forum. My daughter is turning 4 next mth and she had been asking for ballet/dance classes for the past 1.5yrs. she went for 2 workshop over the june holidays, love it but have since requested for a ballet sch with open studio or one which i can peep at her, think for security reasons.

We stay in the central, novena/balestier area.

Would appreciate if anyone could recommend a good ballet school with loving teachers for her to start. Thank you. somewhere with an open studio would be a plus

thanks

in addition, does anyone have any review on Kavanagh dance, sissonne dance art? thanks

My DD will be sitting for her very first RAD exam next April. Her school is imposing another 20 lessons on top of her current lessons. I presumed this is the norm for most schools. Will it be tiring if I have both lessons at one go with a short break in between? Doable?

Should be ok if total hours for 2 sessions does not exceed 2 hours. A lot of parents want such back to back class but cannot find, end up go twice a week, which can be very troublesome too.

Yes, this is the norm - technically known as \"coaching\" classes to prepare for the exams. Having lessons back to back is do-able if your DD ballet tr has such BTB classes and your girl is able to \"take\" a longer session.
