Classical Ballet

Ballet is about art, but it is also about life. Classical Ballet technique was established centuries ago in the courts of Europe, and it has been evolving ever since as dance teachers, artists and researchers refine approaches to training and add to the vocabulary of steps and movements that are unique to the ballet discipline.

 

Ballet dancers are fit, strong and flexible, and they are lifelong students. They take class every day of their lives to keep in shape, to maintain the quality of their style and technique, and to enjoy the community of other dancers. To be able to perform at the best of their ability, dancers need focus, commitment and a capacity for hard work.

 

The creation of a Ballet starts with an idea or a movement which is nurtured, tried out, modified, tried again, talked through, tried again, refined, practiced and presented, then reflected upon and finally remembered.

 

Ballet is exciting to do, and to watch.

Ballet for Kids

Learning ballet from an early age is particularly beneficial as young children are far more receptive than adults. Students will be taught in a relaxed and fun environment developing, rhythm, musicality and good posture whilst learning the basics of Ballet.

 

Learning ballet can also help to develop children’s gross motor skills and confidence as the classes also work towards learning a dance for concert or examination.
