Studio Danse #4

The cover of this 2010 Bamboo Édition release sets a playful, energetic tone right away — a graceful blonde ballet dancer lifts a wide-grinning boy completely off the floor, his sneakers dangling in the air as a group of curious classmates watches from the dance studio behind them. Crip & Béka bring a wonderful comic sensibility to the world of dance, capturing both the discipline of ballet and the humor that comes with mixing different personalities in one studio. It's a charming opener to what looks like a genuinely fun series about friendship, movement, and maybe a little cheerful chaos.
