What are the RAD Examinations?
The Royal Academy of Dance offers examinations in classical ballet for both young children starting out in dance classes and the older student, whether their interest in ballet is just a hobby or the student aspires to dance as a vocation. This is the student’s chance to compare her/his performance to worldwide standards (and a parent’s reassurance that your child is receiving the best instruction available). A student may need additional classes to prepare in the weeks prior to the exam. Participating in examinations is not a requirement for continuing your child’s instruction with this studio.
