Ballet Classes

Due to the technical demands of classical dance and the dedication required to achieve this, ballet is inevitably a more serious class with the emphasis on tuition and discipline.

Pupils are prepared for graded examinations, including student and full teachers qualifications in the N.A.T.D, and may also study for medal tests incorporating mime and character work.

When not preparing for examinations pupils also benefit from free classes, incorporating other syllabi, such as the R.A.D, which helps promote a fuller understanding of ballet as well as improving technique and classical expression.

Pupils also have the opportunity to perform in several shows allowing them to gain invaluable performance experience. We have enjoyed much success with the English Youth Ballet having 28 performers accepted into the two productions to date.
