Prior to the class I thought:

That the class would be hard and very intense especially in terms of atmosphere

The class set a friendly atmosphere and the class only looked hard due to the many repetition involved in class.

That there would be certain dominant genders and physiques.

There were some men, which was nice to see.

There was as well mixed body shapes and abilities but everyone did the same class and benefitted from it.

# data[].attributes.body
Looking at my gathered researched:

Barrecore has evolved from its roots of ballet to cater and entertain to no specific social class.

Some Participants have high institutionalised form cultural capital from Bourdieu.

What interested you in teaching Barrecore?
" I heard about the craze, took a class and instantly fell in love with it. I really enjoy the way it incorporates Ballet etc. with modern update music.  As I've been doing Ballet for some many years it was a nice change from the classical structure of a Ballet class"

The "angle" was to find out what social strata or class groups Barrecore participants belong to and whether they expose themselves to any 'high art'; considering Barrecore uses element of Ballet( which is consider elite) within its dance form.
- To find out whether the high economic and cultural capital in Ballet has transpose in Barrecore or has changed

Dance Spectacular Show 2018
The registration forms and first information letter are now available in our shop. Please note that not all of our classes will be doing the show. The classes highlighted on our timetable (below) in pink are doing the show, those that are in black will not be doing the show. It is mainly Graded Ballet, Graded Tap, and 4 year classes not doing the show. This allows pupils to continue learning their dance syllabus without any interruption.

If your child is in a Ballet class that is not doing the show, and she/he would like to do it, you can either transfer to a ballet class doing the show or add the class to your activity until the October half term.

Timetable updated 20 March 2018

'Cats' Workshop Easter Holiday And what an enjoyable and informative day we had. Children were taught some of the choreographed routines from the Musical including how to move and sit like a cat and make people 'believe' you're a cat. Great fun.

Royal Ballet School
Every year the ' aballeteducation.com ' website produces its listing of the Top Ten ballet schools in the world. For the tenth year in succession the Royal Ballet School has come in First place. The Royal Ballet Lower School is located in Richmond Park in a wonderful building called 'White Lodge' an absolutely amazing setting. It takes pupils from 11-16 years before they further audition for the Upper School located adjacent to the Opera House. Each year it accepts 10-12 boys and 10-12 girls from around the world with around 50 Finalists having to undertake one last audition.

Since 2002 Suzanne's School of Dance has had 7 pupils successfully audition into White Lodge with a further 3 pupils reach the Final auditions. Two of these pupils are currently still at White Lodge while Keira Moore has recently reached the Final auditions. Well Done!

White Lodge Entrants: Rachel Ware 2002, Leanne Morris 2003, Georgia Ware 2005, Anna Rose O'Sullivan 2005, Lauren Porter 2008, Mia Bailey 2013, Jasmine Whitford 2014.

Final Auditionists: Micaela Infante 2011, Georgie Lee Evans 2013, Keira Moore 2018.

For more information on the Top ten listing please visit: https://aballeteducation.com 2017/0711/the-best-of-the-best-top-ballet-schools-of-2017

Final Audition Update: Keira Moore was recalled at the Final Audition meaning she was strongly considered for the final few placings although she was unfortunately not successful. However to reach the Finals is such a marvellous feat in itself and this has helped her in being granted one of the very few Full Scholarship placements at Tring Academy which she will take up in September of this year. Many congratulations! We will miss her but wish her all the very best.

Wow! What a Show. We've been told by many it's the best yet and we're inclined to agree. Well done to all the cast, absolute stars, everyone of them. And to all the helpers who gave up their time to make stage props, adjust costumes, and look after the boys and girls in their dressing rooms.

To any potential new parents and pupils I would like to emphasise that we do run LAMDA classes during the week and at weekends. For those that don't know LAMDA stands for 'London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts'.
These classes are designed to improve children's elocution, articulation, acting and performance in order to give them the skills and confidence to succeed in life. Our teachers are professionally trained to coach children in these skill sets which culminates in globally, OFQUAL recognised examinations. These examinations at Level 3 are also included in the current UCAS tariff, with a Grade 6 Diploma currently being 40 points. They are very popular classes and all of these perform at the Beck Theatre in our Dance Spectacular Show.
