Anna C Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 London Children's Ballet do a lovely summer school from age 9 upwards. Dd has never done the Junior one but has done the Senior SS several times and it is a truly wonderful experience: http://www.londonchildrensballet.com/training/summer-school/ If you are within reach of Harpenden there is a lovely summer school there later in August which I can also vouch for, and which dd is looking forward to again this year: http://www.harpendensummerdanceschool.co.uk/Harpenden_Summer_School/Welcome.html I was about to suggest the Tring Park summer school but it looks as if it may be full, which is a shame: http://www.tringpark.com/associated-courses/summer-dance-course 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nancy19 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Southsea dance summer school is ran by Viennen Fesstival ballet. The 6 day long course is based in Hampshire. My daughter attended last year and has a place for this year. It was excellent, 9.30 - 4.00 Monday - Friday with performance on the Saturday. Younger girls do ballet, character and limbering, older girls incorporate pointe. I think it was £140, well worth the money. x 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
