Europe/Prix Tour 2025 - Prix de Lausanne Day 3 🌟 A big day yesterday for the Junior Girls: Classical warm-up class, Contemporary class marked by the Jury (another 25% of their score which determines the Finalists), Classical coaching on stage with the beautiful Monique Loudières (Étoile of the Paris Opéra), Contemporary coaching and stage run-through with Juliette Rahon. We then watched the Young Creation Award, and fell into bed after dinner! 🌟 Allie, Grace and Sienna are loving their time at the Tanzakademie Mannheim, and explored neighbouring Heidelberg yesterday afternoon. They will head to Lausanne today - we can’t wait to be reunited again and hear all about their adventures 😊 @prixdelausanne #pdl2025 #amandabollingerdanceacademy#abdafulltimers#internationalballetcompetition#aspiringdancers #incredibleopportunities #proudteacher...

Europe/Prix Tour 2025 - Prix de Lausanne Day 2 🌟 Yesterday all the candidates (Girls A& B, Boys A & B) had their Classical class work marked by the jury of industry experts (and inspirational artists!). This makes up 25% of their score which determines the Finalists. Yve-Noelle’s group also had their first coaching session on their contemporary solo, along with a contemporary class (which will be marked by the jury today). Yvie is settling in now, and having such an amazing time ✨ And Miss Amanda is loving it too 😊 🌟 Meanwhile our beautiful girls Allie, Grace and Sienna have been doing classes at the Hochschule für Musik und Darstellende Kunst in Frankfurt and the Tanzakademie Mannheim, where they also had the opportunity to see the ballet school in a performance - we are so proud of them, navigating the German trains and cities with their wonderful chaperone 😊
Thank you for sharing these photos. We popped on to cheer Yvie on. She's dancing beautifully and looking strong. Hard work pays off. An exciting experience for her, and I'm hopeful that many more exciting opportunities await.
Europe/Prix Tour 2025 - Prix de Lausanne Day 1 🌟 A full day for Yve-Noelle at the Prix with a Warm-up class on stage, straight into a run-through of the classical variation to get a feel for the stage (just a little scary!), Classical class taught by Elisabeth Platel (Paris Opera Ballet School) with the jury observing, and a Contemporary class taught by Sarawanee Tanatanit (former ABT dancer)! And to top it off Yvie had photographs and interviews with the Swiss Press 🇨🇭 🌟 So great for both Yve-Noelle and Amanda to catch up with fellow dancers and teachers from around the world who they have met in their travels before, and such an honour to be back Prix de Lausanne #PDL2025#amandabollingerdanceacademy#abdafulltimers#internationalballetcompetition#incredibleopportunity#aspiringballerina#superproudteacher#hopschwiiz...

Europe/Prix Tour 2025 - Prix de Lausanne Registration Day🌟 Today the 53rd Prix de Lausanne officially began, with all the candidates coming together to register, have a tour of the beautiful Beaulieu Theatre, take their first class together, and also celebrate with a welcome party 😊 Yve-Noelle is in Girls A and is number 108 - so look out for her in the livestream from tomorrow morning our time! (From 6pm Australian time) 🌟 We also caught up with Allie, Grace and Sienna who have made their way safely to Frankfurt, and are ready for their audition classes there tomorrow 🥰 Toi Toi Toi to our amazing girls for tomorrow!

Europe/Prix Tour 2025 - Zurich/Amsterdam 🌟 Yve-Noelle has spent the last three days training at the Tanzakademie Zurich, where she and two other Prix candidates from ‘down-under’ were welcomed guests ❤️ A huge thank you to the amazing Jason Beechey and his wonderful faculty at the TAZ for being so generous - Yve-Noelle was able to join classes, rehearse in the beautiful studios, and was even part of their in-house display for the Prix candidates 🌟 On to Lausanne tomorrow! Super exciting week ahead, with Yvie representing not only ABDA, and Australia, but also proudly flying the Swiss flag! 🇨🇭
Our Sunday was spent making our way across Germany and into the Netherlands on a 6-hr train trip to Amsterdam 😊
The girls were excited to take classes at the European School of Ballet, where we caught up with ABDA student Elena Wang, who is currently doing a 3-month internship at ESB. And to top it off we also had dinner with ABDA graduates Poppi (now in Dutch National Ballet), Alissa (intern with ICK Dans Amsterdam) and Georgia (freelance artist) 🧡🌟
Tuesday night Yve-Noelle and Miss Amanda left the girls in the safe hands of all our Alumni in Amsterdam to make their way down to Switzerland, where Yvie is taking classes at the Tanzakademie Zurich before heading to Lausanne 🇨🇭❤️
Europe/Prix Tour 2025 - Berlin 🌟 After a short train trip, and 3 connections on the subway, we made it to our Berlin apartment on Thursday night for a good rest.
Friday and Saturday the girls took audition classes at Miss Amanda’s former training ground: the Berlin State Ballet School - and we caught up with ABDA graduate Ruby McVey, who is in her second year here at the school. Such a treat!!
Friday evening we scored tickets to see the Berlin Staatsballett perform an incredible Triple Bill of Forsythe and Blake works 🌟
And Saturday we got to walk past Miss Amanda and Stephan’s old apartment building, on our way to the renowned Yumiko store (which of course was top of the list for the girls!)
Summer School 2025 ☀️ 55 students ages 5-17 yrs filled our studios last week for an amazing week of Ballet, Pointe, Repertoire, Contemporary, Conditioning and even Aqua-Ballet! Thank you to our wonderful faculty: Amanda Bollinger, Ariane Murray, Jack Hersee, Riannon McLean, Taylor Murphy, Devon Manhire, and special guest tutor Justine Summers 😊🧡 #amandabollingerdanceacademy#abdasummerschool#balletsummerintensive#balletworkshop...
