Primary Ballet & Primary National

For boys and girls 7 to 9 years

Our Primary Ballet classes are for boys and girls with the experience in ballet from age 7 or 8 years, and for 9 year old beginners.  Children can start to work towards ISTD (Imperial Society of Teachers of Dance) Graded examinations, and we teach ballet up to Advanced 2 standard. In all classes, we encourage the children to develop artistic quality and musical awareness, alongside learning correct technique and improving strength, flexibility and stamina.Primary Ballet & Primary National

Through carefully structured classes, we teach correct technique and aim to achieve the highest standards relative to each individual’s physique and ability.  We strive for exceptional classical line and quality of movement alongside encouraging freedom of expression, particularly in the lower grades.  Ballet is superb for developing excellent posture, strength and flexibility.  Our classes are enjoyable and rewarding but require discipline, commitment and dedication.  Our teachers provide a caring and supportive environment in which our students can thrive.

As all dance forms compliment each other, to enhance their learning in ballet, we recommend that children also learn tap and modern dance.  For children in Grade 4 ballet and higher, it is necessary to attend weekly body conditioning classes and National Dance classes are compulsory for all children in Primary to Grade 5 ballet. Pointe work is normally introduced for girls when they move into Grade 5 ballet or at commencement of Majors work.
