Introductory Ballet
Tiny Tots (age 3-4)
Pre-Primary (age 4-5)
Our youngest dancers are introduced to ballet in a playful, imaginative way that nurtures a love of movement. These classes use music, storytelling, and creative activities to help children build coordination, confidence, and joy in dancing, while laying the groundwork for future training.

Our programme incorporates high-quality ballet instruction, and we are proud to align with the values upheld by the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD):
The Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) was founded in 1920 with a single purpose: to raise the standards of dance teaching in the UK. 100 years later, excellence in dance teaching is still at the heart of everything they do. Today, the RAD is a world-leading dance, education and training organisation, with dance teachers and students in 85 countries, enriching the world’s arts and cultural communities. From three to 93-year-olds, the RAD believes in the transformative power of dance to enhance our health and happiness.
