Below is a list of the classes we offer and a brief description of what the class is, if you have any queries please do not hesitate to ask us. BALLET Ballet is the key discipline for dance which teaches a solid technique as well as poise, grace, musicality, correct posture, balance and strength. We teach the ISTD Imperial Classical Ballet Syllabus which has been carefully developed in order to provide a fully comprehensive training to children and young adults. MODERN Modern dance is a fun and popular class, which encourages co-ordination, balance, strength and flexibility. Modern incorporates many different styles of music, and teaches students about different rhythms. Young people are trained to become disciplined and versatile dancers. ISTD Modern Theatre Dance is a dance style with the ability to adapt, develop and evolve with the changing fashion in dance and is often seen performed in the West End musicals. TAP Apart from being an essential skill for the professional dancer, tap dance is one of the most enjoyable and rhythmic forms of recreational dance. From funky tap to the more traditional ‘Top hat and tails’ style, we’re sure there will be something here to suit you! We follow the ISTD Tap dance syllabus, which is currently being re-vamped and modernised. As well as the structured syllabus, we will introduce the pupils to free tap work. JAZZ Jazz classes will follow the ISTD Jazz medal awards, as well as some non-syllabus work where students are encouraged to increase their flexibility and strength. We focus on developing the key Jazz movements as well as teaching modern and funky routines. This class encourages performance skills and gives dancers an opportunity to let go and to express themselves. This is a fun and energetic class. SINGING Our singing lessons can be tailored to any specific requirements (for example Musical Theatre, Audition Work, etc . .). PRE-SCHOOL CLASSES We offer fun pre-school classes from walking age up to school age. Come along and learn how to move and dance in a fun and friendly environment. This is an introduction to the world of dance where toddlers can develop the skills of co-ordination, musicality and balance, as well as enjoying time with other children. ADULT DANCE Our adult classes are fun and social and open to all ages and abilities. Don’t fancy the gym? Then come along to a fun and energetic class. Learn to tap, do some funky modern routines or even some ballet – it’s never too late to give it a go! PRIVATE TUITION For those students keen to participate in competitive dance festivals, you will require private tuition. This is an opportunity for us to work with you one-to-one and really focus on improving technique and performance to prepare for competition work. One-to-one tuition is also available for helping with basic dance technique if you feel your child would benefit.
