Our Peru2020 project has come to an end! This year we welcomed more than 100 students into our classes, shot two dance films, held a photoshoot all finishing up with 3 performances where we joined the rest of Social Creativa's summer programme and shared our work.

We work really hard to make these programmes available for our students and it's always equally joyful and sad when we get to finish our time in Chincha with happy children and proud parents.

Week 2 of our Peru2020 programme is coming to an end. This week we've continued practising our technique in our daily classes as well as focusing on getting our students ready for our 3 performances taking place next week.

Additionally we've had a chance to talk about future projects with The National Ballet School and in true Making Dance Happen style we've arranged another video project for next week, connected with our friends at and someone may have started a new exiting venture that may involve making more dance available for more people - hint hint: it's one of us.

Here you can see some of the photos from our week one photoshoot. We think they are brilliant - don't you? @ SOCIAL CREATIVA
