Preparations for the 2010 Summer School are well under way with the location and teachers booked. Places are already filling up fast for the annual event to be held again in Scotland, with many students returning to improve upon the skills they have already acquired.
A varied range of students are expected from all over the globe and with many different levels of experience, ranging from near beginner to near professional. We enjoy return visits by some members of staff this year, whose presentations have scored a big success with pupils and public.
For more information and to participate in next year’s summer school please contact the Russian Ballet Society to receive a brochure and application form.
Dates for the Course are the 17th of July to the 31st of July 2010, with our performance dates to be confirmed.. We welcome some of our members among the variety of students from countries around the world who have all benefited by the experience. The course is open to dancers of all standards and levels.

Shot through Mme, Bartell's office window at Summer School 2003 , in July, a group of students rehearsing on the lawn where the Summer School was housed and where it will be returning in 2008. Five classes per day plus rehearsals were evidently just not enough for these enthusiastic students, one of whom had returned for the third consecutive year from Milan.
