Level 2 Improvers

These classes are for those who wish to refresh their technique and revive their love of ballet having taken classes as a child or adult or have already completed at least three terms in the Level 1 Beginners class. This class focus’ on understanding and building on the basic principles of ballet, expanding your knowledge of the core ballet positions, terms and movements whilst taking time to develop the linking steps used in ballet. They are a great way to improve posture, strength and coordination.

Tuesdays & Fridays

Level 3 Intermediate

These classes are for those who have previous experience and a good knowledge of the principles of ballet or who have progressed from my Level 2 Improvers class. This is a more challenging ballet class with more complex exercises and enchaînments and options will be provided to suit those with less or more experience. They are a great way to improve on your ballet technique, fitness and strength.

Mondays, Tuesdays & Thursdays

Level 4 Advanced

These classes are for those who have experience and a broad knowledge of classical ballet. This is a much more challenging and technically demanding ballet class and works at a faster pace learning more advanced combinations of exercises in pirouettes, allegro and enchaînments. They are a great way to stimulate the mind and body and understand the physicality and musicality of ballet.

Mondays

Pointe Work Classes

These classes are for those with previous experience of Pointe Work and those that have pointe shoes ready to wear for class. These classes are great for those who wish to progress their pointe work and we work on ankle and foot strengthening exercises, along with a full pointe work barre and building to centre practice exercises. A great way to embrace your inner ballerina and revive your love of pointe work!

Fridays

Ballet Body Conditioning

These classes are for everybody and no previous ballet experience is required. I teach a mix of class styles working on improving core stability, strengthening and lengthening of key ballet muscles, posture, weight placement and alignment used in ballet, alongside cardio-building exercises and stretching sequences to improve flexibility. Whilst ballet is at the heart of these classes everyone will benefit from a Ballet Body Conditioning class, as it is a complete body workout!

Private Classes

I offer private coaching, pointe work classes and audition preparation classes if you have a specific goal in mind and would like a class to focus entirely on you, your needs and aspirations.
