BBO DANCE DAYS 2024-Raglan DANCE STUDENTS in Christchurch

We are thrilled to share the incredible experience our Freedom2Fly students had at the BBO Dance Days Conference these winter school holidays in Christchurch! This year marked our second time attending this prestigious event, and it was just as special as last year.

In 2023, we had three dedicated students representing our studio. This year, we were proud to have eight talented dancers attend, making us prouder than ever of our growing dance family.

The majority of our students focused on ballet this year, but some also joined the open jazz and tap classes. This diversity in learning showcased their versatility and eagerness to explore different dance styles. The conference was an exceptional opportunity, with examiners flying in from Sydney-Australia, and London-U.K, providing our students with the chance to learn from top world class industry professionals.

Each day was packed with at least 3 hours of rigorous training, including daily syllabus classes with international and New Zealand examiners- an open ballet class, and an open lyrical or contemporary class. The level of instruction was unparalleled, pushing our students to refine their techniques and expand their artistic expression.

The highlight of the week was the epic showcase on Friday. Seeing the students perform what they had learned was incredibly inspirational. The showcase, held in a stunning theatre, featured a variety of levels, demonstrating the high standard of training and the incredible progress the students had made in just four days. Our Freedom2fly parents were blown away by the performances, amazed by what the students managed to learn and present in such a short time.

Beyond the training and performances, our students had the chance to meet and make friends with fellow dancers from around the country. The camaraderie and shared passion for dance made the experience even more enriching.

We are immensely proud of our students for their dedication, hard work, and the unforgettable performances they delivered. Seeing them shine on stage was a true joy, and the pride from our parents was the icing on the cake.

A huge thank you to the BBO Dance Days Conference organizers for creating such an amazing event, and to our students for representing our studio with excellence. We can't wait to see the lasting impact this experience will have on their dance journeys.
