[dropcap]T[/dropcap]he International Dance and Drama Institute of St. Lucia (formerly known as the St. Lucia School of Ballet & Modern Dance) recognises and honours the achievements of students who, for the academic year September 2017 to July 2018, dedicated themselves to the discipline and study of the international dance syllabi of the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD UK) in Classical Ballet and the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing (ISTD UK) in Modern Theatre Dance.
The students achieved a 100% pass in both genres, gaining distinctions and merits from the primary level up to advanced two—professional dance company standard.
Examiners flew in from Canada and the UK on April 16 and May 31, 2018 and conducted the examination at the Cultural Development Foundation—the authorised examination centre for both international examining boards.
Students who were trained in the school’s Vieux Fort leg were also among the successful.
The International Dance and Drama Institute of St. Lucia is the oldest and most reputable dance school in Saint Lucia and within the nine member states constituting of the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS).
The school is fast approaching its 40th year of operation in Saint Lucia in 2019.
Mrs. Theresa Lowrie-Collymore continues to direct and expand the dance school to the areas of Reunion and Mongouge, Choiseul. The goal is to bring dance education to all communities in Saint Lucia and still offer classes at the Cultural Development Foundation, Balata, Rodney Bay and Vieux Fort.
The Institute will be hosting its Christmas Concert at the end of November this year entitled “The Greatest Story Ever Told”. Students both past and current, local artists and the Saint Lucia School of Music will be participating in the production. For we dance to enhance our island with the spirit of excellence!
