Congratulations to all the dancers that took part in June 2 and 3 RAD Presentation/Exam session. ROYAL ACADEMY OF DANCE BALLET EXAMS (RAD) We are pleased to continue with the Royal Academy of Dance Ballet Exams. RAD exams may take either a Ballet Presentation Format or Ballet Exam Format. At times a pianist will be available during our year for the RAD Ballet exam classes. There is a non-refundable $60.00 Presentation/Exam deposit that will be posted to your account in October and charged November 3, 2008. (If a dancer drops the exam class before October 31, 2008 the monthly fees for November to June and the $60.00 Presentation/Exam deposit are returned. After October 31, 2008 there are no refunds.) The balance of the Presentation/Exam payment will be due a month before the exam date. There may be additional fees for extra rehearsals.
