Ballet classes for young children encourage independence, creativity and problem solving. They also promote co-ordination, social skills and mental wellbeing.
Our Dance Tots class is a parent and toddler class, so parents should be prepared to join in with the fun (and chaos!). Each session features a 30min teacher-led dance and creative movement section, followed by a 45min free play, during which time grown ups may even get to sit down!
Our Dance Scamp program has been created to encourage your child to develop their physical skills. They will learn to run, jump, crawl, leap, skip, hop, spring, throw, catch, balance and more. The program makes good use of soft play equipment, play tunnels, obstacles and hand props to excite and engage your child. Our PreSchool Ballet Class has been created to encourage your child to explore the limits of their imagination. Each class follows a story based structure with music specifically chosen to help your child fully immerse themselves in the theme of the class. In a typical year of classes we’ll visit toy kingdom, the enchanted castle, the secret island and the zoo. They will learn to march with the toy soldiers, test their jumping skills with kangaroos, gallop with unicorns and tiptoe carefully past sleeping lions!
PrePrimary Ballet is your child’s first introduction to the Royal Academy of Dance Graded Syllabi. The grade still has plenty of focus on imaginative exploration, but is also a step towards more formal dance training. Skills developed in the PreSchool Ballet and Dance Scamps programs are developed and refined further. At the end of the grade, students are given the option to take their first Royal Academy of Dance exam, before moving up to RAD Primary Ballet. Our PrePrimary and Primary Ballet classes include Tap dance to encourage a greater sense of rhythm.
