Today we held our first Mock Audition of the year, for our Year 11 students, to prepare for their upper school auditions! The students were taught a ballet class by guest teacher Senri Kou, and were joined by five guest dancers, to recreate the feeling of auditioning next to unfamiliar people! Thank you so much to Senri, our guests, and to the students for a brilliant class ✨

Hard work and fun in our Pas de Deux Masterclass last week!

At LVBS, pas de deux roles are not assigned based on gender. All genders learn how to partner and be partnered, broadening their skill set and understanding of technique and of each other.

We love these photos, taken by Jules Renahan, of two Masterclass participants working as a team and enjoying their pas de deux class!
