We've received a lovely testimonial from a Fonteyn 2023 candidate, Mandy Kwan, who was offered a scholarship to American Ballet Theater after her time in the competition: "I am very grateful to have been offered this scholarship and opportunity to visit New York City and the School of American Ballet. I learnt a lot from the teachers, in my technique, artistry, and healthcare. It was very memorable when I made friends with the students who brought me to their dorms and around the city. I got to experience their lives first-handed and it was very eye-opening and interesting! It helped me make connections with kind people, watch and learn from inspiring individuals in such a prestigious school, and allowed me explore the Big Apple in hopes of one day performing there!"

🌟 From start to finish: A journey through RAD Exams 🩰 Meet Sarah-Jane, a dancer and teacher who has completed every single RAD Exam, all the way to Advanced 2! Their journey is a testament to hard work, passion, and an unwavering love for dance. ✨ What kept them motivated? “I sat my Intermediate, Advanced 1 and Advanced 2 exams over a three year period whilst studying dance full time at college. The syllabus really improved my classical technique and aided me so much in all the other styles I practiced. I loved how much the syllabus helped me grow in confidence and also challenged me to be the best I could be. It really helped me to stand out in auditions. Fast forward and I am now a registered teacher. Having my Advanced 2 exam also allowed me to be recognised as an Associate of the Royal Academy of Dance (ARAD). I now teach every grade from Pre-Primary to Intermediate across various schools, and have created my own school to give training to new Adult Dancers, using the syllabus to support their learning. Being so involved in the RAD is the best thing I’ve ever done ♥️” 👏 Join us in celebrating this incredible achievement! Have you or someone you know completed all RAD Exams? Share your story with us. 📸 Courtesy of Sarah-Jane
