Just a quick thank you for making L’s exam experience today so enjoyable. I have never seen her so relaxed before a dance exam and she came out feeling very pleased with herself. You must be worn out, but all your hard work is much appreciated.
Thanks again.

Junior School Ballet
Classical ballet is universally recognised as a wonderful base for all other styles of dance, building strength, poise, grace, posture, balance, flexibility, control and co-ordination. Its beautiful, fluid movements are achieved after years of carefully layering the technique and artistry and it is an amazing and fulfilling way of practising mindfulness, focus and self-discipline whilst reducing stress and improving mental well-being.
Junior School Tap & Modern
Tap dance is a fascinating combination of intricate footwork, complex rhythms, and a free and fluid use of the upper body resulting in an exciting and dynamic art form. It uses a wide range of music and has many different styles varying from traditional to contemporary. It is brilliant for enhancing a dancers sense of music, timing and rhythm, challenging the brain with its complex combinations, and is a great cardiovascular workout!
Junior School Acro
Acro is a unique dance form that enables our dancers to seamlessly combine dance with gymnastic elements, which can be especially beautiful in choreography for shows and competitions. Its hugely beneficial for our dancers to learn Acro alongside their dance genres as it builds amazing core strength, balance and flexibility with the added bonus of being able to perform acrobatic tricks!
Junior School Speech & Drama
Our Head of Drama is a prize-winning graduate of Central School of Speech & Drama as well as an award-winning playwright and mental health professional. She has specially devised an exciting, imaginative programme which is tailored for each age group and is lots of fun as well as developing your acting techniques and abilities!
