There is a new site, started by a former member of BT4D who wanted to keep the spirit alive. Sadly, the previous content is lost but there does seem to be a rejuvenated energy on the new site. It's only been a few weeks but there are quite a number of new discussions. It is predominantly parents seeking and sharing guidance on their young dancer's journey, dance teachers / administrators, and some young dancers themselves.
I have a membership here on Ballet Alert, though this might be my first post, but long time lurker and enjoy these discussions immensely. I was a member on BT4D since my daughters started attending summer intensives over a dozen years ago and I now have two professional dancers. I would enjoy a lively discussion about audience engagement and company marketing. One of my daughters is dancing with a small company in a growing Midwest city. It has been enjoyable to watch how they engage with the community and grow their audience.
I don't know what the "rules" for joining are but would welcome some discussions over there (or here) if you are so inclined.
