Dance Masterclass

Hannah Mattinson left QE after studying A levels two years ago following a competitive audition process to secure a place at the prestigious London Contemporary Dance School. Hannah recently came back into college to lead a brilliant masterclass for Woodham Dance Academy. The girls worked with Hannah on a contemporary routine, enhancing their dance techniques and sharpening their performance. The session took place in QE’s state of the art dance studio and is a result of QE and Woodham Academy PE departments forging a closer collaborative link.

Lisa Marie Robinson who attended the masterclass said, “It was a brilliant experience for me. The choreography was very technical and a good challenge. All the girls learned so much from Hannah and had a great time.”

Hannah, who is now into her third year at the renowned dance school commented “It was a pleasure to work with such a talented bunch of dancers. I was really impressed with the girls’ skill levels and teamwork. I had an amazing time at QE and am so glad to see dance in college and the local schools thriving so well. Dancers always achieve well in A level PE at QE and after working with these girls, I am sure that tradition will continue in the future.”
