TALENTED youngsters spent the day at a world-famous dance studio.

Btec dance pupils from the Harwich and Dovercourt High School visited Pineapple Dance Studios, in London, and tried new moves from the dancehall, street and jazz genres.

They were also given masterclasses by choreographers who have worked on West End productions.

Pupils also explored Covent Garden and were given a look into the audition process when a music video scout took over a class and invited one lucky youngster to come for an audition.

Head of performing arts Sarah Parker said the experience had been extremely worthwhile for pupils passionate about dancing. She said: β€œIt was a fantastic day of challenges, new experiences and was a fantastic opportunity to develop their skills.”
