Year 7 Ballet
By Lisa Dixon | Posted: Friday November 26, 2021
The session was a very full on workout - having fun learning different warm ups and ballet positions before putting it all together in a "Firebird " dance at the end.
This year the Royal New Zealand Ballet has been producing local modern content to perform and live stream during Covid times and one of these was "The Firebird". As part of our session we learnt some of the moves that the dancers performed in the show. Lauren worked through the session teaching this in parts before the class had to perform their whole dance at the end. This was so great as it tied in perfectly with our focus on storytelling through various arts medium such as music, dance and acting at this time.
It was fantastic to see the growth mindset and positive attitudes from our students to take part and give it their best. Our students have impressed us throughout this term with their involvement and participation in a range of performing arts.
