“My teachers teach me lots of new techniques and skills and then we perform a dance to our parents at the end of term, which is lots of fun. It is a fun way to express my inner self through my movement.”
Ballet 8-11s participant
Focused. Graceful. Storytelling.
Ballet 8-11s is a relaxed class where young dancers can explore ballet technique, creativity and movement. Dancers learn travelling steps, short phrases and ballet terminology while building confidence and musicality.
As the term progresses, children build on what they’ve learnt each week and are encouraged to explore their own creativity through movement tasks inspired by ballet.
We welcome all children who enjoy moving and want to try something new. No previous experience is needed and there is no pressure around grades or exams. No special uniform is needed and ballet shoes are optional.
This class is for children with little to no experience with ballet. If you no longer fit in to this age bracket, check out Ballet (12-18s), Contemporary (12-18s) or Hip Hop (12-18s).
If you’re not sure which class is right for you/your child, get in touch with our Box Office team on 01473 295230, who will be happy to help you.
