Rachel Ware - Great Britons


Hello everyone,

I need your help again. Rachel Ware, a student from The Royal Ballet School, is off to Boston Ballet in September. Rachel has entered this competition to help with the cost of flights to Boston.

Rachel's appliction is at an earlier stage than Izzy's was when we started to follow her story - so this time her profile needs to be rated. The higher her rating is, the greater the chance that Rachel will be short-listed.



Please do take a look at the link and see what you think. You made such a difference to Izzy's number of votes - I hope we can give another young dancer some help to follow her dreams & make it back home to her family for Christmas and holidays. They are very close and it would mean the world if we could secure this win for Rachel.

  7. Hi Elise
    thanks for popping over!
    I did "ballet" for a short period as a young girl and I very occasionally go to the theatre in Joburg when an international troupe is visiting, but that isn't often. I see more troops (of baboons) in the bush :-)
    See you again

  11. Hi, Elise: Thanks for stopping by my blog. Made my day. Your blog is very interesting at well. If I had to choose between singing and dancing (and I can't do either one), I would definitely choose dancing. These pictures are beautiful!

  16. I just popped over to visit through the comment that you left on my site. I have completely enjoyed my visit and the cupcake and conversation interviews are very intertaining. I hope Rachel gets all the votes she needs to put her in the top. I, like others here, no nothing of ballet except that it's beautiful to watch and takes a great athlete to perform. I will be back to learn more.
