A local dance convention for young artists, complete with educational workshops, was always a dream for Brynne Abgrall.
“It’s been a long time coming, it’s been something I’ve wanted to do forever and I’m just so excited,” Abgrall said.
The 21-year-old Winnipegger has been dancing competitively since she was four. It’s been a life-long passion that she wants to share with others.
Thanks to the encouragement from a university professor, FORM Dance Convention was born. It’s a two-day event for dancers eight to 19 years old complete with master classes and workshops in performance psychology, nutrition and conditioning.
“These don’t happen in Winnipeg very often so this is unique and it’s very unique to have a faculty of this calibre come and teach for the weekend and then including the health and wellness too, it’s really going to enhance their dance experience,” Abgrall said.
