Top Tips For Finding Your Summer Ballet Fix in Hamburg:
Outdoor Classes: Hamburg is known for its stunning architecture, and what better place to embrace the spirit of summer ballet than amidst its beauty? There are some incredible outdoor classes happening around the city - from rooftops with breathtaking city views to parks bathed in the golden sunlight.

Explore New Ballet Styles: It's the perfect time to try something new, especially with the wealth of contemporary, jazz, and even ballet-inspired dance styles offered. If you fancy getting your heart pumping, go for hip-hop or street jazz - these styles are super energetic, and so much fun! Plus, they’re perfect for incorporating some cool moves into your repertoire. And if you’re in the mood for something elegant and graceful, then contemporary or lyrical ballet is for you!
Let Your Inner Disco Queen Shine: The summer vibe calls for some funky, energetic moves! Disco dancing, with its funky grooves and playful energy, is perfect for those hot summer nights. Many dance studios and clubs in Hamburg offer themed nights and workshops celebrating the spirit of disco, so be prepared for some seriously fun dance sessions!
Discover Your Local Community: Whether you’re new to Hamburg or a seasoned local, discovering local dance communities is essential. Check out "Dance Hub Hamburg" online, and follow your favourite local studios and schools on social media. You might find a new group of dance-loving friends, learn about workshops, and even find a fantastic new dance class to join.
Unleash Your Creativity with Summer Ballet-Inspired Activities:
Tutu Time!: Summer screams for bright colours and sunshine, so it’s the perfect time to showcase your amazing tutus. Find your favourite pink, peach, or sunny yellow number (a hint: the more sequins, the better!) and embrace your inner ballerina. Think about wearing them to a dance class, grabbing coffee with your girls, or even stepping out for a summer evening in Hamburg's trendy Alster area! Don't forget the glitter, darlings!
Craft your Own Tutu: Let your inner designer run wild! With summer's sunny vibes, crafting your own tutus is a super fun activity. Get those DIY skills going, search online for easy tutorials, and find yourself some pretty fabrics and tulle. You can create custom tutus for different styles or even turn them into unique fashion statements to wear at summer parties or festivals! You could even throw a themed crafting party for all your besties!
Capture the Moment: Document your summer ballet adventures! Bring your camera and capture those gorgeous summer sunset shots at the outdoor class. Share your fun with friends on social media using #tutuseason and #tutusummer for an explosion of ballet love. Let’s get the ballet community talking!
A Ballet-Inspired Summer Feast: Throw a summer soirée for your besties, themed around ballet! Think dainty canapés, bubbly, and pink-hued drinks. If you’re a baking pro, create stunning pink desserts to really embrace that summer ballet feel! Decorate the space with pink and gold streamers, twinkling lights, and maybe even a couple of ballet posters to get your guests in the mood for a fabulous ballet evening.
