About the event
To participate in this workshop, you will need to have mastered ballet linking steps in the centre, such as balancé, Posé temp levé, and pas de chat, which will involve occasional partnering and group poses, including holding hands.
We will start with a short warm-up at the barre, followed by learning the choreography as a corps de ballet. It is always very uplifting to work together, helping and supporting each other to create beautiful lines and tableaux.
Wear your usual ballet dancewear. Long skirts optional.
Several breaks will be taken throughout the workshop. Bring a bottle of water.
The cost of the workshop is £35.00.
