Join American Ballet Theatre for an intimate dance workshop that will introduce your child to the most popular story ballets in the Company’s repertoire. Children 4-12 years old, will participate in activities directed by ABT Teaching Artists. As an introduction to the movement of ballet, the children are guided through a ballet warm-up and taught a short piece of choreography based on ballets that ABT regularly performs at Lincoln Center. Children will transform into the elegant swans of Swan Lake, attend the Masquerade Ball from Romeo and Juliet, and bound through the energetic dances of Don Quixote! There is no need for any prior dance background, as we welcome all to experience the joy of dancing. Children are encouraged to wear their favorite dance clothes. Dancers of all ages and abilities are welcomed to join! This FREE workshop is a part of the BAAND Together Dance Festival at Lincoln Center's Summer for the City and will be led by Alvin Ailey teaching artists and is designed for all ages. Saturday, August 13 from 5:00–6:00 pm. General Admission only, first-come first-served. Advance reservations are not available for this event; just show up!
