The Platform

✨ The Platform 10 Year Celebration ✨ WORKSHOPS — DAY 1 💙 At The Platform, it’s never just about the show or the performances, it’s also about the opportunities, training and experiences our dancers receive along the way! Across the weekend, we host multiple guest artists, all professionals within their own styles and backgrounds, who share their knowledge and experience with our participants to further enhance the incredible training they already receive from their dance schools and teachers ✨ We’re so lucky to have created a platform where we can do this. A space that’s not only about performing, but also about nurturing, inspiring and supporting the growth of every dancer involved! 🎥: @alwayspicturesque
