⭐Contemporary Dance Workshop for Adults with Elysia Britton ⭐

Open to Students and Non-Students

Saturday 23 May • 10am–12noon

Meadowbank and Willowbrae Church, 83 London Road, Edinburgh, EH7 5TT

£15 • Open Level catering for all abilities

We’re excited to welcome contemporary dancer and choreographer Elysia Britton for a special open-level workshop in Edinburgh.

With training from Tring Park Associates and a background spanning contemporary, jazz, commercial, and RAD ballet, Elysia brings a rich blend of technique and artistry. She has choreographed for productions including Guys and Dolls, The Little Mermaid, and Kiss Me, Kate, and teaches across multiple Edinburgh schools.

This workshop explores grounding, release, and momentum—inviting dancers to unlearn rigidity, discover new pathways, and move with genuine freedom. We’ll build from developmental exercises into a short combination, creating space for personal expression.

All levels welcome. Please share with anyone who might be interested.

Come move, explore, and dance with us.
