Workshop de Ballet no Porto (Portugal) - O Quebra-Nozes

Quarta, 28 de Dezembro

19h00 - 21h00

Olá a todas/os! Estou muito contente de oferecer um workshop de ballet na zona do Porto nestas datas festivas do Natal, perfeita altura para mergulhar na magia do Quebra-Nozes.



Sendo originalmente do Porto e tendo dado os primeiros passos de ballet no antigo Parnaso, é com muito entusiasmo e carinho que ofereço pela primeira vez um workshop na minha terra natal.

Mal posso esperar poder juntar antigas alunas e amigas com quem nos diferentes momentos nos cruzámos a dançar. Junta-te a nós, vem partilhar memórias e o amor pela dança!

Workshop

O workshop será uma aula técnica seguida de repertório do Quebra-Nozes do Royal Ballet (Londres). Vem dançar o Quebra-Nozes com a inspiradora música de Tchaikovsky.

Neste workshop vou introduzir a história do Quebra-Nozes e produção do Royal Ballet; música e curiosidades; e dar a conhecer o trabalho da Royal Opera House e do Royal Ballet.


Programa de The Nutcracker (O Quebra-Nozes), Royal Ballet 2016/17.

Como professora formada pela Royal Opera House e Royal Ballet School, o workshop vai reflectir a minha experiência com estas instituições, seus métodos de ensino e departamentos educativos de divulgação, e com bailarinos actuais e outros profissionais. Tragam as vossas perguntas!

Nível

O nível é geral, adaptado aos participantes, mínimo 1 ano de experiência. Todos são bem-vindos a partir dos 14 anos.
Workshop é também adequado a professores que queiram expandir conhecimento técnico e de repertoire.

Encontro

Antes do workshop podemos encontrar-nos em hora a combinar e partilhar memórias, trazer fotos, contar histórias e conhecer antigo/as aluno/as. Sugestões bem-vindas!

Vem desfrutar do ballet e sempre encantador Quebra-Nozes. Aprende mais sobre o mundo do ballet e dança com amigos!
