We received a visit from Ponce León School

CND Educa

Last week we welcomed a very special group to our headquarters. The fifth and sixth grade students of the Ponce León School attended the CND headquarters on the occasion of their participation in the workshop “Silencio se baila”, an activity developed by our educational department, CND Educa, in collaboration with the Montemadrid Foundation and the Ponce León School of Madrid.

During the course, the students have been working on a choreography with our dancer Elisabet Biosca, learning with her and the Ponce teachers to express themselves and enjoy through movement and dance.

Accompanied by their teachers and our director, Joaquín De Luz, last week the students at the headquarters of the CND presented the work done and, in addition, they were able to enjoy watching the dancers during their daily ballet class.
