This year with Covid restrictions affecting dancers and live performances around the world it is more important than ever to celebrate dance as an art form. A full itinerary of the day can be found on the Royal Opera House page.

Harlequin shop and ballet barre

To celebrate this exciting day of ballet Harlequin have launched a newly designed online shop and a new, improved Harlequin ballet barre for home practice.  The new improved shop design offers customers a tailored entrance, B2B customers including dance studios, schools, universities and theatres will have access to a range of professional equipment and accessories for their performing arts spaces and B2C (private individuals) will be offered a specific set of products tailored for home practice.

The new Harlequin home range of ballet barres are available in two sizes, small (4ft) and medium (6ft).  The barre comes in five easy to assemble parts that lock together with a simple key (provided) and they are being sold at a competitive price.

As current restrictions don’t appear to be loosening, dancers are finding themselves spending more time having to train at home.  A Harlequin ballet barre offers dancers the opportunity to train on a professional standard barre from the comfort and safety of their home, rather than having to use a chair or breakfast bar.
