Hey dancers, it's Emma! Summer's here, and with it comes sunshine, ice cream, and of course, the most magical time of year: ballet season! This summer, Hanwell is truly stepping onto the dance floor, offering a whole plethora of exciting things for every level of ballerina – from budding prima donnas to seasoned professionals, from toddlers to grown-ups! 🌸
Let's kick off our summer ballet journey with a little disco flair! 💃🕺
Summer is the perfect time to explore different styles and let your creativity flow. What better way to do that than by getting funky with disco ballet?
Remember, ballet is all about storytelling! Why not add some glitter to your pirouettes with a disco ballet workshop? Learn those sassy, energetic movements and feel the rhythm of the 70s pulsate through your steps. Think Donna Summer and The Bee Gees, all wrapped up in a whirlwind of joy! And trust me, wearing a tutu while grooving to disco is just as fun as it sounds. 😎
Don’t worry, there’s plenty of summer ballet fun to be found outside of Hanwell! 🩰
