Highgate Ballet School in association with HBS Youth Dance Company are pleased to offer a new classical dance programme on Friday evenings during term time.
Aimed at students aged 12-16 who may be considering full-time vocational training in classical ballet or contemporary dance at 16 or 18+, this unique programme will enhance and supplement a dancer's current training and performance abilities.
Non-syllabus classes focus on developing a strong, sound and virtuosic technique, core strength, flexibility, musical awareness and artistic expression whilst preparing students for auditioning.
Ballet class will take place on Friday evenings (6.30-9pm) along with pointe, choreography and gyrokinesis.
Workshops in repertoire, character dance, men's work, physical theatre and mime.
Guest teachers and choreographers.
Easter Course with Flemming Ryberg of the Royal Danish Theatre, Richard Glasstone, ISTD Fellow and Founder of the Cecchetti Society UK and Dame Marina de Grut, President of the Spanish Dance Society, from 13th-15th April 2012
Theatre performance at Richmix, Shoreditch, Summer 2012
