Silver Swans welcome First Artist from The Royal Ballet Company

Milford on Sea Silver Swans ballet group recently had a visit from a special guest, Tara-Brigette Bhavnani, a First Artist from The Royal Ballet Company until the 2022/23 season.

Stephanie Constantine-Smith, who runs Silver Swans arranged for Tara to visit Milford on Sea last week to lead a workshop for her students.

The afternoon workshop was at All Saints Church Hall in Milford on Sea. Tara put the Swans through their paces, with an hour long ballet class, followed by an hour of learning Repertoire – the Waltz of the Flowers from The Nutcracker. One Silver Swan commented “What a privilege to have a workshop with Tara, she was an inspiration - an experience of a life time. We’re so lucky Stephanie arranged this special treat for us”.

Stephanie wanted her Swans to experience dancing with a professional, and who better than with an artist from the Royal Ballet Company. “It is important to me that age is not a barrier to experiencing this sort of opportunity. My Swans all come together weekly to explore and develop their creativity - and at the same time work on their balance, mobility, posture, and co-ordination. There is also the social side – plus we have a giggle too! Having Tara come and visit is the icing on the cake!”



Silver Swans meet in All Saints Church Hall, Milford on Sea on:
  • Thursdays 10.45 to 11.45am. Term time only.
  • Mondays 12noon to 1pm. Term time only.
