For this very festive London Day Retreat, we are thrilled to be joined once again by one of The Royal Ballet’s brightest stars, Principal ballerina Mayara Magri who will be coaching the Rose Fairy from Act 2 of the Royal Ballet’s favourite Christmas ballet, The Nutcracker.
A beautiful and virtuosic role set to iconic Tchaikovsky music, the Rose Fairy is an opulent flourish in the middle of the Waltz of the Flowers and its difficulty is rather underrated! Filled with many exciting turns and jumps, generous port de bras and quick changes of direction, it’s a challenge for even the seasoned dancer. However under Mayara’s gentle and patient instruction we will learn, modify and adapt to ensure everyone feels a sense of achievement and satisfaction when dancing this wonderful role.
Take a look at our wonderful guest teacher dancing the repertoire here.
This Day Retreat is tailored for adult ballet dancers at an Intermediate level or above. See our Level Guide for more info.
