Gifted and Talented Dance Workshop
Last Thursday a group of 21 boys and girls from years 7-10 took part in a Gifted and Talented Dance workshop with Loop Dance Company.
They took part in a technique contemporary workshop and then had to choreograph a short section of their own. The students participated extremely well and all got involved in creating their own work. At the end of the workshop 5 students were chosen to take part in a 2 day intensive workshop at Laban in London, one of Britains most prestigious Contemporary dance schools. In this workshop they will do more technique and choreography activities and if they wish they can then apply for the Centre for Advanced Training Scheme at Laban.
This is an excellent scheme that helps young dancers develop their skills and experiences, allowing them to perform all over the country. The 5 students who have been chosen are very excited and will be taking part in the workshop in the February half term.
