BALLET

Classical ballet offers a blend of fitness, flexibility, strength, and musicality, all while fostering creative expression. Our ballet classes are 90 minutes in length, allowing ample time to complete a full class and focus on refining technique, enhancing detail, and ensuring safe dance practices.

Our classes are structured for various skill levels and include daytime and evening options:

BALLET FOUNDATION CLASS (60 minutes)

This class is suitable for adults aged 16 years and over.

LEVEL ONE BALLET (90 minutes)

For dancers with basic ballet knowledge looking to progress from the Foundations class. This class focuses on stronger postural alignment, linking movements from barre to centre, and preparing for more complex steps and combinations.

This class is suitable for adults aged 16 years and over.

LEVEL TWO BALLET (90 minutes)

CONTEMPORARY

A modern dance style that combines structure with freedom, focusing on alignment and fundamentals while allowing creative and expressive movement. It’s less physically demanding than classical ballet but equally rewarding.

Enjoy the freedom of movement and music, staying fit and active in a fun, engaging way—more exciting than a gym workout and a wonderful way to express yourself.
