This is an exciting course designed for anyone who has an interest in theatre costume or ballet. This course will teach you to make a professional tutu base for classical ballet dancers or ballet students. With a limit of six people per course you will have the one-to-one attention you need to ensure you leave with a finished, or almost finished, tutu.

Tutu making is a unique skill allowing costume professionals to stand out in a crowd with a competitive portfolio. Basic machine and hand sewing skills are useful for this course but no extensive costume or tutu making skills are necessary. The course would be ideal for a recent graduate wanting to build up their CV or a costume professional wanting to broaden their skills. The course would also be great for an enthusiastic amateur, a parent with a child studying ballet or a dance tutor who wants a creative input in their final show costumes. Tutu making is not a widely taught subject and is rarely taught to a professional standard.

This is a highly practical course, developing creative making skills. You will learn how to construct a 10 layer 16 inch tutu base skirt; fitting, cutting, pleating and assembling the layers. The course will be delivered through a number of technical lessons in order to complete the project. Examples of the finished project will be available as a visual aid and demonstrations of the various processes shown throughout. At the end of the course you will leave with a completed tutu and enough skills, knowledge and notes to create another.

The skills taught on this course would be an addition to any portfolio of work and could essentially lead to work in the costume industry. It could also be an aid to developing existing professional knowledge. Above all it will create an opportunity for like-minded people to have fun learning something new.
