  9. Go to the barre practice rising and lowering with concentration on moving through your feet. With good posture and correct pelvis alignment. Feel the rotation of the legs coming from inside the hips! Do it slowly on Demi pointe then on pointe in 1st. Then at the barre practice releves in 5th all on Demi concentrating on the same things, then releve devant and derrière make sure you are transferring your weight to bottom cheeks on one leg. Don't snatch the foot move your body weight from leg to leg. lots of practice on Demi before you move onto practicing the same on pointe. hope this helps

  12. Thanks arabesque1 for you question. It is classical ballet mainly during the day, and then evening activities we offer a diverse range of other classes from contemporary, commercial and we even did a hip hop class last year which was great great fun. We feel it is important to embrace all styles of dance. Doing this will make you a better classical dancer. Dear, theother51, it was not intended to be said in a condescending way. We are just honoured, humbled and grateful to have them on-board. For your information, Hope Keelan and Anita Young both work at RBS, and as Bluebird22 rightly mentioned Anitia is so inspiring and Hope is also as lovely. Edward we know as possibly one of the greatest male dancers of our time, if not all time! (personal opinion only) Ex principal dancer David Yow of Elmhurst is as wise as they come and a perfect gentleman with so much knowledge to share. Ricardo is the Ballet Master of The Royal Ballet. Thank you for all your questions and reply's. Have a lovely day.

  20. Hi Armydancer Thanks for your question. As we only ever take 12 guests on our courses then the personal attention is second to none. This means the level requirement is not as much of an issue as everyone gets lots of attention, and lots of correction tailored for the specific needs. As the course is a live-in course we would normally have a minimum age of 13-14 years, however some younger ones are more mature and quite happy away from home. Please email me directly on nicola@woodsidedanceretreat.com, and we can chat more about your needs and what will happen on the course etc. Regards Nicola x
