Education & Workshops
This page is dedicated to Transitions Dance Company’s participatory activities. You can read about the activities we offer, as well as comments from students and teachers.
"The students really enjoyed their experience and the
piece they produced with the dancers was beautifully choreographed
and performed. The students were pushed physically to their
limits... This is an experience they will remember for a very long
time."
Caroline Crawford, Teacher at Thomas Telford
School |
We offer a comprehensive range of educational activities.
Participatory work actively engages people with the Company,
allowing a more in depth experience for those involved and we will
work with you to help create a package that meets your
requirements.
Workshops:
A typical workshop includes a contemporary technique warm-up
followed by an opportunity to explore the creative process behind
the current repertoire.
"They delivered with a calm reassuring manner, with
lovely interaction with the students who obviously enjoyed their
experience."
Caroline Watkins, Teacher at Dagenham Park Community
School |
Creative Workshops:
The participants have the opportunity to explore and relive the
creative process that the company members experienced whilst
working with the Choreographers, which makes up the current
repertory.
''It improved my creative and choreographic
skills.''
Student from Dagenham Park School |
Contemporary Dance Class:
Dance students at primary or secondary level will benefit from the
unique experience of taking a class with a professional company - a
thrilling experience for any promising dancer. Classes are devised
for the level and age group in conjunction with the leader.
Class/Workshop:
This formula combines the Contemporary Dance technique class with
the creative workshop as detailed above in a single form.
''I found the workshop very challenging and felt a
sense of pride when I was able to start to master the movement and
perform it to the group."
Student from Northbrook College |
We are happy to accommodate longer workshops or residencies
which give participants the opportunity to work more closely with
the Company. Please contact Lorna Hosler for further
information.
