 In fun ballet we cover the basic ballet  movements but the main aim is for the children to have fun and grow to  love ballet and dance. We use musical appreciation, mimes, ballet  exercises and dance steps to achieve this. 

The children also have the opportunity to do exams, shows and performances.   

The School also offers graded ballet classes following the UKA Dance Syllabus 

Freestyle Dance Gym is a very popular form of  dance. It involves runs, spins, kicks, flexibility, gymnastic skills and  leaps, as well as many other steps & movements.  The music can be fast or slow allowing  students to use freedom of expression to enhance their performing skills.  In the beginners class we start from basic shapes and positions which they can then build on and put together to make a routine.

We work on perfecting their technique with some skills, which allows them to  find harder skills easier when it comes to learning them.  We work on strength and flexibility also by doing conditioning  throughout the sessions and making this fun and interesting by turning  them into circuits or games  

The Advanced class students work from basics and to build on their skills whilst still maintaining the skills they already  have. We work on perfecting their technique within these skills and ensuring they have  the prerequisites to develop these skills further.
