Classical Ballet
Our Ballet classes follow the UKA (United Kingdom Alliance of Dance) syllabus. From 4 years of age children in our infant, junior, intermediate & Senior age groups will start to learn the more technical aspects of ballet. We believe that ballet is the heart of every dance genre building on classical technique and performance.

Modern/Jazz & Flex
Jazz covers how to technically perform kick, turns, leaps etc so they are pleasing to watch. A lot of jazz technique develops from Ballet but you can add a lot more style. We also work on leg & hip flexibility in these lessons.
-
Tap
Our loudest class. Tap focuses a lot on rhythm after all you are using your feet as an instrument. Children are taught a set of skills in their lesson and encouraged to be creative in amalgamating their own skills together.
-
Street Dance
For the cool kids that love to strut their stuff and show off. Our street dance classes are recreational and just for fun. Every class gets the opportunity to perform in our annual showcase.
-
Contemporary & Lyrical
Our principal trained in contemporary for her degree and loves looking at different contemporary techniques from Graham to Cunningham. These classes are perfect for children that have a true passion for dance. In class we encourage students to feel the music and explore movement and shape, let the music guide the movement and they can create some beautiful choreography full of emotion. Children from 11 years can join this class.

We focus on making sure their technique is right. We build on strength and flexibility as a partnership to nurture the children to progress onto bigger and more impressive tricks. Acro is very much a team class, we work on group balances of all sizes. We understand that children are all different so are encouraged to progress ate their own pace in a safe environment.
