The problem with this and other articles about RAD is that it doesn't speak to the actual teaching or technique. Everything I've ever read about RAD is generalized to the point of blandness. I don't care how many dancers have studied RAD or how long it's been around or who developed it. At least with Cecchetti, Vaganova, Bournonville, and so on, there are some specifics that help define the teaching or technique. Reading about there being an RAD graded syllabus or exams or whatever is of absolutely no value if one wants to know WHAT the instruction is or what makes this training unique, as this wiki says. This entry is just blowing the same old smoke.

[edit] Complete Revision
Hey all, I'm completely re-writing this article to try and make it more informative and wikipedia friendly at the same time. I'm including a selected history and other information about the Academy. I am taking all my information from the chornology and Facts & Figures pages on the RAD website, but do feel free to change anything if things have been updated and you have a reliable infromation source.
