Welcome!
Sharing the studio with these creative, intelligent, kind and hilarious dancers every day for the past two weeks has been an absolute joy for me!
Each piece has been choreographed by a dancer/s, for the dancers. They created these pieces from mind maps full of ideas for concepts and choreographed/taught them to each other entirely themselves. It has been such a privilege to hear their ideas and see them bought to life in such a clear and careful way.
Each dancer has been nothing but supportive to each other - the studio always being filled with cheers and applause! They have challenged each other in the best ways and always shown the highest level of respect for one another. It has been so special to witness and I have been so inspired by each of them.
I’m incredibly proud to present the seventh season of IN BLOOM to you today and I’m incredibly proud of the beautiful cast that has created it. We hope you enjoy the show!
