The London Ballet Company will be working closely with Stone’s Studio B, by bridging the gap between young dancers and a professional dance company as part of a new partnership.
Studio B director Laura Lacey told A Little Bit of Stone:
“We have been working hard behind the scenes with the company director, and after a full assessment of our teachers, students, school values and vision, we have been awarded this wonderful opportunity.
The London Ballet Company will travel to our lovely studios three times a year to hold workshops for our young, aspiring dancers.
The whole company will also be travelling to Stone to put on, a full-scale show, with the students at Studio B!
The ethos of The London Ballet Company is to advance the technical skills and nurture the mental, physical and social well-being of young artists in an inclusive creative stimulating and inspiring training environment.
It is their aim to promote self-expression, individuality and performance artistry to enhance technique, flexibility, musicality, creativity, choreography, acting skills, free movement and improvisation. High levels of physical strength, technique and discipline combine to produce confident, creative, innovative and versatile dancers of the future.
Considering Studio B is only a year old, this is a huge achievement for the young dancers.”
