Ballet

Miss Jacqueline

BalletWe study the I.S.T.D (Imperial Society of Teachers of Dance) syllabus from Pre-Primary up to Advance 1.

Ballet gives the child a chance to develop self confidence and express themselves through movement, also giving them a grounding in discipline and good posture which should carry them through into adult life.

Ballet is fun and rewarding at any age, and at the same time, you make lots of new friends. Ballet is the stepping stone to all other aspects of dance and if able, the student should try and have Ballet as one of his/her disciplines.
