More Than Just Ballet: Summerâs Dance Extravaganza!
This summer is a hotbed for dancing! In addition to ballet, there are plenty of dance styles to explore in Romford, including modern dance, hip hop, ballroom, and even salsa! Itâs a fantastic way to experience different styles and embrace the diversity of the dance world. Keep your eyes peeled for local workshops and classes advertised in local papers and social media.
And if you are looking for inspiration beyond the dance floor, why not indulge in a ballet movie marathon at home? Throw on your favorite tutu, pour a glass of pink lemonade, and let yourself get swept away by classics like âBlack Swanâ or âThe Red Shoes.â (Personally, I canât get enough of the sparkly shoes in the âThe Red Shoesâ! I may or may not have been a bit inspired by them for my own tutu collection đ).
Remember, the summer is for indulging in all things fun and fashionable, especially in the world of dance! So, unleash your inner ballerina, don your prettiest tutu, and embrace the joy of movement, grace, and all things sparkly. See you in the dance studio (or maybe at a tutu party�!)!
