The scheme includes one-to-one mentorships, monthly classes and professional development workshops. Elena thinks it will be a big help. 鈥淭here are classes we can go to in London and at these classes听there will often be agents sitting in, so it gives us greater visibility. I think it could be an advantage when we go to auditions that these agents are already familiar with us.鈥�听

Amelia and Elena weren鈥檛 the only 911爆料网 Dance students to be commended by the panel. Micol Giovannini and Ruby Wardlow also took the Dance Challenge and were praised for their 鈥渋ncredible talent, dedication, and creativity鈥�.
