Bringing ballet to the Baa Atoll . . .

My upcoming 2 week Artistic Residency at Avani+ Fares Maldives Resort, a natural island hideaway on the western edge of the heart-shaped Baa Atoll will echo the balletic performances of marine life beneath the waves!

A magical mixture of group ballet classes and one-to-one sessions for both adults and children will take place in a dedicated dance studio with a sea view, while sunrise breathwork and relaxing mobility sessions on the beach will enhance the meaning of serenity.


12th-23rd November 2024

Enhancing the ballet programme, you can pamper yourself with unique spa experiences, like the Tutu Tension Release Massage and Dancer’s Delight Detox Wrap, all accompanied by melodic ballet scores at the resort's AvaniSpa.



You will also be invited to savour imaginative cocktails including the Tutu Tini and Grand Jeté Gin Fizz, seamlessly transitioning from the barre to the bar.

What’s included:

  • a beach villa or water bungalow of your choice and daily breakfast

  • access to the island gym, beautiful spa and my exclusive ballet classes and breathwork sessions throughout your stay *

  • specially created ballet themed spa treatments and speciality cocktails *

  • starlit dining concepts on the sandy shores *

  • a choice of 5 restaurants/ dining experiences and 3 intimate beach bars

* all classes, spa treatments and speciality cocktails will be charged at a special rate to your room

What’s not included:

  • your flights and/or other transport to and from Male and further transportation (such as a seaplane) to Baa Atoll, which will be organised by the hotel

  • Lunches, dinners and beverages outside of breakfast

  • extra activities provided by the hotel such as diving, jet skiing and boat trips etc

The Avani+ Fares Maldives Resort beckoned me for a long weekend of sun, where I experienced the Baa Atoll Ballet Retreat taught by Royal Ballet Graduate and teacher Karis Scarlette. Wellness takes centre stage at the resort, offering guests the chance to embrace a healthy lifestyle through dining, spa treatments and access to a dedicated wellness team while embarking on a journey of pure relaxation.

Stretching at sunrise, breath work overlooking the beach and ballet classes mirroring the fluidity of the marine life in the ocean made for an escape like no other.”
