What grade ballet should you do if you 13 years old and haven't done ballet in years?
Well, it depends on whether you're doing RAD or ISTD or any other grading systems. I am 13 too and I am currently doing grade 7 RAD which is quite challenging. I would probably start at RAD grade 5, as 6, 7 and 8 are much more complicated. XD
Where can you buy a copy of the grade 4 ballet syllabus RAD?
you can buy it from the dance shop 'BLOCH'. you can also get a copy of the DVD there too. =]
What is the difference between cecchetti ballet and ballet?
There is not just Cechetti Ballet and Ballet. You learn a ballet syllabus, there are many different ones. When you take an exam it is from an exam board for example Cecchetti but there are many others such as R.A.D., I.D.T.A. and I.S.T.D. However Cecchetti and RAD (Royal Ballet) seem to be the most common. Cechetti grades are a lot more technically demanding and are considered harder. Grade 3 in Cecchetti would be equivalent to a Grade 4 or 5 in RAD. Cecchetti is also a lot harder to get a high mark in. You cannot compare exam results from Cecchetti and RAD fairly. There is more focus on alignment and poise in Cecchetti than in RAD which becomes more useful if you want to become a professional. Some positions such as 'epaule' are only included in Cecchetti. I personally think Cecchetti is slightly better than RAD and all the others, having trained in RAD and Cechetti.
In ballet what grade are you classed as an experienced dancer?
Its not an actual 'grade', but more of how well you can deliever the technique. Performance experience and versitility are important to be considered and experienced dancer. In RAD its probably Advanced or Solo Seal.
What mark is distinction in RAD ballet?
75-100
