Adult Nutcracker Ballet Workshop (Open Level)
Why join an onstage workshop?
Feel more wonder, joy and excitement as you step on stage at the London Coliseum.
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.
Open level: We recommend dancers have some ballet experience in order to best enjoy this workshop. This session will creatively explore sections of the ballet and phrases from the repertoire and can be adapted to your ballet experience, whether you’re a seasoned pro or have a few classes under your belt.
