DD1 dances for 2 and a half hours a week. However she also practices and stretches everyday at home. At the moment she does Grade 2 ballet (30mins) and Grade 3 modern (30mins) on Thursdays and Grade 2 ballet(45mins) and Grade 3 modern/Grade 2 tap (45mins) on a Saturday. In May she is doing her Grade 2 ballet, which she has been in for a year, exam and is practicing for it everyday. We hope that in July she will do her Grade 3 modern, which she has been in since she was nine, and her Grade 2 tap, which she has been in since she was ten, in October/November. At the moment dd1 is 11 and will be 12 at the end of June.
So is it possible for her to become a professional dancer? And, if so, how hard will she have t work to get there?
Thanks
