Summer Schools
First Position's summer school is held every year in the 3rd week of August, and runs from Monday to Friday.
It is a wonderful chance for the pupils to learn many different styles of dance and various aspects of theatre and the performing arts, whilst having lots of fun and making new friends.
Each day starts at 9.30a.m. with a complete group warm up, after which the children are split into two, the juniors age 6 - 11 years and seniors age 12 - 18 years, where they continue classes until 4.30p.m.
Master classes are held in:-
- Hip Hop
- Pop Stars
- Singing
- Drama
- Audition Technique
- Limbering
- Musical Theatre
- Street
- Costume Design
- Stage Makeup
- Latin American
- Choreography
- and much, much more.
This all takes place at the Winton YMCA under the guidance of Miss Natalie. Classes are taught by professional dancers and choreographers from across the country giving the children a valuable insight into the world of dance and theatre.
At the end of the week parents are invited to watch a performance, covering everything the children have learnt.
The summer school in 2010 will cost £100 per child and £90 for siblings.
“First Position, what can I say...!
Very talented, so enthusiastic with always a smile on their faces.
They have great ability to use a variety of styles and are quick learners, this would stem from Natalie's teaching skills.
Natalie herself is professional but very approachable and has a great relationship with each and every one of her pupils, also benefiting the children by still dancing herself.
It is always an enjoyable experience for me, and I love to make the trips down to Bournemouth.”
