Canadian Masterclass Series with Chan Hon Goh - Vancouver 2022

Vancouver

The Canadian Masterclass Series is an unforgettable opportunity for aspiring dancers all over the country to take part and train with one of this generation’s most gifted and prolific artists, Ms. Chan Hon Goh C.M. D.Litt., former Principal Dancer of The National Ballet of Canada, and Director of Goh Ballet Academy.

Tailored to students ages 10 and up, Ms. Goh will show participants how to find their voice using the language of dance. Alongside working on classical technique, using select variations from the comedic ballet, Coppélia, Ms. Goh will nurture characterization, performance presentation and build individual expressiveness, unveiling unique qualities in each dancer.

As well as being a valuable tool for growth, the Canadian Masterclass Series is a wonderful opportunity for students to audition to study at the prestigious Goh Ballet Academy, and be eligible to receive a scholarship to further their dance training. Participants are eligible for select scholarship awards, totalling $10,000 throughout the entire tour. All participants will be considered and winners are chosen based on technique and artistic potential. (Conditions apply)
