Designed for adult dancers (aged 18+ years), this workshop includes taking a short barre followed by some centre exercises to warm up, before exploring some of the most recognisable dances in ballet. Inspired by the magical world of Nutcracker, step into the stunning Land of Sweets and Delights and waltz the day away.

Intermediate level: This is recommended for dancers who have a confident knowledge and application of classical ballet technique to best enjoy the workshop. This class involves more challenging barre and centre work, taught at a swift pace, using technical ballet language.
