Royal NZ Ballet








On Wednesday we had some dancers from the Royal NZ Ballet perform for us. They started with warm ups, we were amazed how flexible the dancers were! After the warm up they showed us 4 different dances. The men used crutches for one dance and the girls danced to a Lady Gaga Song, they were fantastic! We loved the show!!!

We got time to ask the dancers some questions, these were some questions we asked:
What are your ballet shoes made of? paper mache
How often do you need to buy new ballet shoes? 2 pairs a week, they are $100 a pair!
When did you start dancing? When I was 2, 6 and 14
How old are you? 18 years old, 22 years old, 24 years old.
How often do you practice? 5 days a week from 9.00am to 5.00pm
