Calling all dance teachers and student dance teachers!

Join The Royal Ballet School in-person or online for a unique choreographic and repertoire workshop series with The Frederick Ashton Foundation and The Richard Alston Foundation this summer.

Designed to deepen dance teachers’ understanding of both teaching practice and dance content, the two insight days will combine repertory exploration with contextual and pedagogical insight, giving teachers the opportunity to experience iconic movement material. Participants will delve into Ashton’s style and influence on British ballet and the wider dance world and gain valuable insight into Alston’s choreographic process.
