Join us for class at the spectacular West London School of Dance ballet studio, for an evening of inspiring movement and work towards learning a famous variation. These classes are mixed level and open to all - those completely new to ballet and those with prior knowledge and experience of ballet. Together we will work towards learning famous repertoire from iconic and classical ballets. The class divides into two so everybody has a chance to work at a level suited to their own needs, whilst having the chance to learn from and enjoy dancing with those around them. We want ballet to be accessible and fun, because of this our classes have a friendly and supportive atmosphere, we laugh together when we get things wrong and encourage each other when we get it right!
We focus on one variation every four weeks, giving students enough time to develop skill, technique and artistry. You will learn ballet terminology and steps, but we also have a strong focus on individual artistry and expression. We help you to understand the stories behind the movement, to get into character and to connect with the audience.
Note: Class suitable for those completely new to ballet, those with some ballet experience, those who danced as children and improver and intermediate students (pointe shoes welcome).
Upcoming variations include:
01st, 08th, 15th and 29th April: Odalisque from Le Corsaire
06th, 13th, 20th and 27th of May: Odette from Swan Lake
