Progressing through Intermediate and Advanced levels of ballet provides invaluable self-discipline and skills to use in any area of life.
We offer two different ballet ‘paths’ to suit our dancers’ goals and lifestyles. The ‘Allegro‘ path is for the aspiring dancer, wishing to commit to a minimum of three ballet classes per week and to prepare for RAD Vocational examinations. The ‘Adage‘ path is for the dancer who wishes to continue with ballet throughout their high school years, achieving Intermediate & Advanced ballet skills by following the RAD Discovering Repertoire curriculum, learning dances from ballets such as Coppelia, Giselle & Swan Lake.

Dance schools all around the world wear a dance uniform, to help students and teachers alike get the most out of class. Long hair should be in a ballet bun for ballet or tied back neatly for class.
For your first class, don’t worry if you don’t have the uniform yet, just wear something comfortable to move in, and bare feet. Upon enrolment we will send you all the information you need about dance uniform, hair etc.
