Huge congratulations to Raphaella and Olivia, two of our Cecchetti Scholars (Class 1 & Class 2), who performed at the From Studio to Stage event at the Royal Ballet School 🩰✨

This inspiring event celebrates the work of the Cecchetti Trust, bringing together history, training, and performance. The programme included a presentation on the life and legacy of Enrico Cecchetti, demonstrations by vocational students, repertoire coaching from The Sleeping Beauty, and performance opportunities for Cecchetti Scholars and award winners.

Raphaella and Olivia took to the stage as part of this incredible showcase, representing the school with confidence, artistry, and dedication. We are so proud of you both — a wonderful achievement and such a special experience 👏💫
