Take Part

At BalletBoyz, we believe that dance can and should be made accessible to everyone.

 

In the past, we have offered local, regional and national creative learning programmes, classes, workshops, inclusive dance and bespoke schools projects, dance for people with Parkinson’s and a Youth Company.

 

No matter who you are, you can take part and dance with us.

BalletBoyz workshops and masterclasses can help students to achieve their Arts Award, from Discover to Silver level, or support schools in achieving its Artsmark.

BalletBoyz activities contribute to the following Arts Award areas:

 

  • Taking part in art activities

  • Offers opportunities to extend arts practice through experimentation and sharing

  • Supports young people to attend live performances

  • Research into an arts organisation through meeting professional artists, and exploring career paths

  • Digital lessons for students offer people the chance to take part in arts activities and learn from professionals (Part A of Discover, Explore and Bronze). Lessons require students to pair up and teach phrases, with tips on leadership and how to teach peers (Bronze Part D).

  • Creative tasks are adaptable for any ability, which makes taking part great fun! (Part A of Discover, Explore and Bronze)

  • Access to watch full-length productions helps to experience dance as an audience, and develops creative and critical abilities (Bronze Part B, Silver Unit 1 Part C, Gold Unit 1 Part C)

  • Live events from BalletBoyz studios provide chances to interact with dancers and watch rehearsals live (Bronze Part B, Silver Unit 1 Part D, Gold Unit 1 Parts B & C)
