Australian Ballet

Elizabeth News, Newsletter

A day in the life of a Ballet Dancer

Some of our senior ballet students were given the opportunity to watch the Australian Ballet in class. The dances take class every day as well as rehearsing current and future performances.

We were able to watch them in class and also view a rehearsal of a new up and coming performance Volt. I find not only do the ladies enjoy dressing up and going into the city. they get to seat front rows of the lyric Theatre up close to these amazing professional ballet dances to inspire them back in their classes. Always a great way to start 2020.

Troupe Intensive Week

Troupe Intensive Week

Well done to our students who came to the Troupe Intensive Week. We manage to push through those very hot days and work our bodies hard getting back into dance for 2020.

We had guest teachers Ashleigh Thomason who is about to head back to Japan Tokyo Disneyland for her 4th contract. It was great for the students to learn the parade performance routine she performed on her last trip. She also talked about the life and the audition process to get into this industry. The senior students found this very informative. We also had Shannon Hatchman visiting and choreographing two new dances for 15yrs and Opens, they should be amazing. Millie Evans came and helped work those bodies back into shape after our summer break with great conditioning classes and open class work.

Thank you to Miss Gil (Troupe Director) and all teachers who helped in our 4day intensive workshops.

Cruise Dance Tour

Dance Tour 2020

FootworksDance students were given the most exciting opportunity over the summer break. We had 21 performers given the chance to dance on the Royal Caribbean Cruise ship and dance in their Royal Theatre.

The students did two performances over the 10 day cruise with both shows having a full theatre and all the professional dancers watching and cheering our students on. They did Footworks so very proud and their were many tears in the audience by the parents.

The students also had a 2hr workshop with 3 of the male professional dancers which was another highlight of the trip. They gave so much to these students and I know they will never forget this experience.

Now to plan our next trip and to where?
