Dance Stay and Learn – Expressive Body Movements!

Year 3 and 4 students had a fantastic time during Dance Stay and Learn on 28^th March, 2023!

The Dance Stay and Learn was part of the Nord Anglia-Juilliard Performing Arts Programme unique to BSB and Nord Anglia school students. Our students explored moving in the same and different levels and developed an awareness of varying ways to dance alone and together.

The students were great movement researchers, finding ways they can move expressively using different parts of their bodies. Make flat and 3D shapes in big and small space.

In this session, students used the imagery of becoming dough, creating a wide range of 2D, and 3D cookies, cakes, cinnamon buns, which will encourage them to fully engage their bodies in movement.

Making flat shapes was already great experience, but once kids started to interact in pairs and later small groups to bake bigger cakes, was even better!

Performing arts are so much more than what is seen on stage. They encourage self-expression and self-awareness, as well the development of empathy, confidence and cultural exploration. Our collaboration with Juilliard, the world-renowned performing arts school, combined with our outstanding dance, drama, and music programmes, inspires our students’ creativity, team-work and resilience.

The Juilliard School is recognised around the world as a leader in the performing arts; our exclusive collaboration with them harnesses their expertise and experience to create an arts programme that both inspires our students and sparks their passion to pursue their talents and interests.
