Sometimes ballet feels like such a kids' game... well, kids and pros. There's no community theatre or choir equivalent. Well, not NO equivalent, they're just a lot harder to find. <br /><br />I am constantly counting my blessings that I found a studio with a company which actively encourages adults to perform. As much as I love taking class, I need the performances to keep me motivated, plus they serve as a barometer to see how far I've come. I can tell you that if you were here we'd gladly add you to the roster. As it is, we rely heavily on men that can follow directions... that's about our only requirement. When we find one that has even the most rudimentary dance skills we become positively giddy!<br /><br />While I'm not sure about RAD's exact approach I'm intrigued by the levels and exams. If I didn't have performance opportunities I think I'd want to do something like that just to have a set of concrete goals. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
