The Royal Academy of Dance Solo Seal Award is the highest vocational graded examination of the RAD focusing on solo performance. Students are required to perform three contrasting variations, which have been selected to meet the stylistic and technical demands of today's choreographers and directors.
Solo Seal takes place in front of an invited audience and panel of judges, which normally consists of an RAD examiner and professional dancer, former dancer, director and/or ballet master/mistress from a ballet company, approved by the Artistic Director of the Academy.
Students must have successfully completed RAD Advanced 2 and study Full-time Classical Ballet in order to undertake Solo Seal.
