Silver Swans Licensee Workshop

What will the Silver Swans Licensee Workshop consist of?

This workshop will introduce experienced ballet teachers to Silver Swans®, with a focus on devising and delivering safe and inclusive ballet classes for older learners, and strategies which engage students with diverse experiences and abilities.

• an understanding of Silver Swans and the responsibilities and expectations of license holders,
• an awareness of a range of ballet teaching strategies and the benefits of these strategies in relation to the Silver Swans,
• a greater understanding of how to safely modify and deliver ballet repertoire for older learners, and
• a knowledge and understanding of appropriate progression, differentiation and integration considerations for adults of mixed ability.
