Sydney Dance Company Creative Youth Intensive ✨ Congratulations to Olivia S. (Year 11), Aria A. (Year 8), Sophie G. (Year 8) and Bronte P. (Year 8) who spent five days of their school holidays taking part in the Sydney Dance Company’s Creative Youth Intensive at the Sydney Coliseum Theatre, West HQ. πŸ’ƒ Across the five days, the students dedicated themselves to refining their contemporary dance technique, collaborating with other young dancers, and exploring creative prompts through improvisation and choreography. They also had the incredible opportunity to learn and perform repertoire from Momenta, choreographed by Rafael Bonachela, under the guidance of Sydney Dance Company’s Teaching Artists. We are so proud of Olivia, Aria, Sophie and Bronte for their commitment, creativity, and dedication to dance β€” an inspiring example of passion and perseverance! πŸŒŸπŸ‘ #SantaSophiaDance
