This is an intensive three-day workshop focusing on the dance technique of the serious and demi-caractère styles of early ballet circa 1680-1790. The material presented is based on very extensive but as yet largely unpublished scholarly research into early ballet technique. This workshop then is a unique opportunity for dance-students, musicians of early music, or simply curious lovers of ballet to be introduced to a more historically accurate reconstruction of the theatrical dance from the age of Bach, Rameau, and Mozart.
