Teacher:

This class will be taught by a former Royal Ballet dancer and a qualified Royal Ballet teacher - Karis Scarlette.

More about Karis: www.enavantballet.co.uk/whoiskarisscarlette

Class:

A unique master class exploring the importance of artistry and musicality in class and performance, with an emphasis on how musicality can transform simple exercises, help master more complicated steps and how both a better use of music and a sense of story-telling create a overall more professional aesthetic to your dancing. You will also be given tips on how to respond instinctively to the music in order to evoke character and quality which is the very essence of classical ballet, as well as how the different eras of art, culture and music affected ballet and the characters portrayed on the stage.

Even though this class is specifically tailored to our dancers that will take part in upcoming Lent Show in February we invite everyone to attend.

Nutcracker Repertoire from Royal Ballet
Nov 3 2019, 12:00-14:00

St Matthew's Centre Dance Studios, Cambridge School of Visual and Performing Arts, Sturton Str,CB1 2QT

About the teacher

Karis Scarlette began ballet classes aged just two. By the age of six she was chosen to take part in the Royal Opera House’s Chance to Dance program and began attending weekly ballet lessons under the direction of Royal Ballet dancers and teachers where she excelled in creative workshops and performance.

By age seven, Karis was a Royal Ballet School Junior Associate and quickly progressed into the Royal Ballet School itself. During her training, Karis performed extensively with the Royal Ballet, Birmingham Royal Ballet and English National Ballet. Her first performance on a major stage was with The Royal Ballet in The Tales Of Beatrix Potter, choreographed by Sir Fredrick Ashton, in which she danced the role of a baby mouse aged just 9!

A troublesome injury sadly brought an end to Karis’ main stage career however during her rehabilitation she rediscovered how positive self-expression was crucial to her recovery. She channeled this into a passion for teaching others. In 2011, Karis received her teacher training qualification from the Royal Ballet School and Royal Opera House and is based in London but also teaches ballet around the world. Regarded as one of the 'go to' ballet teachers in London, Karis's clients range from complete beginners to world renowned professional dancers, actors, singers and European Royal Family members.
