KNT's Day of Dance

Standard YouTube Licence

For the last 3 years KNT Danceworks has offered its adult dance students a chance to learn repertoire.  We have had intensive workshops for beginners and advanced students on Swan Lake, La Bayadère and Coppelia.  This year we can look forward to something different.  A day of dance on Saturday, 18 August 2018 when we can sample all sorts of styles that we do not always have the opportunity to experience.

There will still be a chance to learn repertoire at the day of dance but this year it will be special because we will be dancing for the first time a ballet that Karen Sant will choreograph specially for us to music composed by our good friend and classmate, David Hotchkiss (see Why Terpsichore Northwest 10 July 2018).  That class will take place between 15:30 and 17:00.

There will, of course, be classes on ballet technique for beginners and pre-intermediates and intermediates and advanced students between 14:00 and 15:30 as well as jazz and lyrical contemporary in the morning.  Karen has promised us special guest teachers  which will increase the cost to £15 per class. That will reduce to £26 for two which is not at all unreasonable for a whole afternoon's ballet.

The day of dance will take place in the Dancehouse Theatre studios at 10 Oxford Rd, Manchester M1 5QA between 10:00 and 17:00.  The theatre is a few hundred yards from Oxford Road Station and literally round the corner from the Chester Street NCP multistory car park which offers special rates on Saturdays.
