[@thebestmarcela]

I was going to do Grade 6 in March, but then corona happened and we pushed it to October, so I decided to learn intermediate foundation to try and take both, since I had already learned all of the Grade 6 exam. I learned all of it through videos here and online classes. It was..an experience. Good luck to us on the second semester:D

YAY thank you! I'm learning for the test next year, good luck all!

Hi I just was asking, because i am only 13 and doing this grade it scares me quite alot having to take my exam when we reopen after the coronavirus... do you have any tips that could help me pass ? 💗

[@abcdjdksjd7340]

amelia cooper-moss I have taken my intermediate foundation and luckily got distinction, probably the best thing with the current time is to really work on your technique and make sure you understand the concepts of each steps. I recommend going on a lot of studios online Instagram live classes for example the Dutch national ballet etc. Another thing that’s really important is musicality and performance, you need to make sure your quality of movement as well as your breathing matches the music. It may feel really awkward but you need to over exaggerate your breaths in exercises like plies with slower more dramatic music. For musicality just mainly really try to match your emphasis on moves to the music. Sadly your studio probably won’t open for a long time so you should use this time to work on your technique (turnout, flexibility, your arch, etc)

[@EmmWood91]

@Eliza Barber me too! I did RAD to grade 5, then moved house and did ISTD for grade 6 class (no exams), and inter foundation class(no exams) and now I'm going back to RAD again but not sure what the grade is as it's a mixed inter-advance zoom class due to fewer numbers signed up. My arms feel confused! I'm half tempted to take the grade 4-6 for a few months! Why do they have to be so different -_-

1. your bend is still very high. 2. your posture is not a square body, it goes left and right everytime. 3. your fifth position on your legs aren't closed properly. 4, your point is always sickled. 5. you get the wrong accent in the battements glisses, its suppose to be attack, not throw. so you have to keep it still when it's in the air. 6. your butt/glutes aren't tightened. 7. your body moves when your foot goes in, for example going back to fifth position from a tondue. 8. your body shakes when you releve 9. your hand placement on the barre is wrong, your thumb is not allowed to be around the barre, it's suppose to be with your other fingers sticking together. 10. you aren't suppose to look down in ANY way, breathing movement is suppose to be extending, not looking down. you should still be chin up, with your hand extending to the side of your shoulder making a 180 degree angle, without the accent of looking down, at all. 11. please turn out properly, from your thigh to knee, then you can unsickle your foot. 12. keep your core, thighs, and elbow strong, leaving your fingers relaxed. 13. the angles of your leg when you frappe or tondue is suppose to be on the side, not the corner. 14. the timing of you and the music isn't in sync. 15. your petit battments are too small and and uncontrolled. your thighs have to stay in place without going up/down, and your legs having an accent of kick rather than go back to it's place. 16. sweetie you can still practice your balance and how high your extentions are even you're already an adult, but it's a bit slower :) i'm not hating, i'm just scared of y'all doing the same wrong things in your exams, and then getting a low score.

[@theballetgremlin]

Thank you for watching the video an giving me a critique. Constructive criticism is always helpful. However, you're clearly doing this to be rude by pointing out all my flaws, and making up some things which are incorrect and I highly disagree with. I took the exam two years ago, receiving a high merit so am not worried about how well I did. I agree I'm far from perfect and do still need to work on my posture, turnout and extensions but have improved a lot since then thanks to corrections from my teacher, not people like you.

christ. I understand constructive criticism but this is just going too far. ballet is a very harsh dance technically but there's no need to list the flaws like that. she's not training to be a professional. please keep the criticism constructive and not harmful
