Pointe preparation

Our unique bespoke course strengthens and prepares the body safely for pointe work. At any age or level. It goes hand in hand with regular ballet class. It's very different to traditional pointe classes. 

Workshops 

Our workshops are a much-loved part of the school. Recent highlights include Christmas and Easter workshops where dancers learned repertoire from The Nutcracker and The Sleeping Beauty, with costumes bringing the experience to life.

 

We continue to offer a range of workshops, from focused sessions such as pirouette technique classes to longer intensives for teenagers. Regular holiday workshops for children and teens, as well as exciting adult workshops and a future ballet retreat abroad, are all part of what’s to come.

Pilates

Our specialised Pilates classes are designed especially for ballet dancers, helping them build the strength and flexibility needed to support and improve their dancing. Each class is thoughtfully tailored to the needs of dancers and led by a passionate and highly experienced Pilates teacher.

Technique and Learn a dance class

In the Technique and Learn a Dance class, beginner–improvers can gradually progress to a higher level while building strong foundations. We focus on proper technique for pirouettes, high jumps, and more complex leaps, alongside developing strength, control, and coordination. Over the course of a few months, dancers also learn and refine a full piece of choreography. It’s a fun, high-energy class that challenges and supports dancers of all levels, from beginner upwards.

Private ballet classes £25 per hour 

I offer private ballet lessons for both children and adults of all levels, from complete beginners to more advanced dancers. Each session is individually tailored to the dancer’s goals, ability, and needs, allowing for focused progress in technique, strength, artistry, and confidence.

 

Private lessons are ideal for working on specific areas such as turns, jumps, flexibility, or preparing for performances and exams, as well as building a strong foundation from the very beginning.

 

Two students also have the option to share a session, which is still run as a private class, at a cost of £25.

 

Please note that prices will increase to £28 per hour in January 2027.

Our student spotlight

Eve is a highly skilled ballet teacher. Both my daughters have found group classes and private sessions to be supportive and enjoyable, learning and refining new techniques. Both have grown in confidence. As a parent, I appreciate Eve’s knowledge and advice in respect to purchasing and breaking pointe shoes.
