Reception
Ballet
A fun and gentle introduction to Ballet, our class is colourful and inspiring. We introduce a little barre work and an enjoyable centre practise with travelling steps and imaginative sequences.
We work on good posture and basic ballet technique while nurturing musicality and confidence. Your little dancer will pick up many useful skills from the ballet class; listening to instructions, watching for visual cues, taking turns and working as a group, while having fun and making new friends along the way!

Adults Holistic
Ballet
Perhaps you have never danced but always wanted to try, or maybe you danced as a child or teenager then gave up. This class is for you! We work slowly and steadily at the barre to build strength, balance and understanding of posture, placing and alignment. We build to an enjoyable, musical centre practice, then gently cool down. You will feel calmer, happier and centred. Long term benefits include: improved awareness of posture, improved flexibility, toned legs and core, improved balance and overall happiness.
