As part of our pioneering partnership with The Royal Ballet School, we delivered a workshop with the third year students this month. We previously visited the same cohort of students in their first and second years, with the aim of supporting them to prepare for their eventual, inevitable, career transition. The students spent the session examining the challenges that dancers face when approaching career transition, and coming up with top tips for professional dancers to prepare for and overcome these challenges. We’re so grateful to DCD supported dancer and visual artist Melissa Spiccia who took the time to come and talk to the students about her own transition. A visit to the second year students is due on Wednesday 18th November. Our partnership with The Royal Ballet School is designed to develop happy, confident, motivated professional dancers who are prepared for professional life. Photo Credit: Schuhlelewis.com
