Class Description

Private Tuition *

Classes are held daily for students from the age of 2 – 21 years.

In these lessons choreography is delivered to the student(s) for either a solo, duet, trio or quartet.

This lessons provide skill, discipline, confidence, performance and musicality.

We recommend all students attend a 1-2-1 lesson to improve their training and quality of the art forms.  Genres that can be covered for festival work can be from Ballet, Tap, Modern, Lyrical, Character, Song and Dance, National, Greek, Stylised Modern-Ballet and Street.  It is evident that students who participate on the performance platform steadily but surely enhance standards all round.

R.A.D Ballet Grades

Ballet is the cornerstone of all forms of dance genres and is an art form created by the movement of the human body.

It is a classical dance form demanding grace, precision and employing formalized steps and gestures, flowing patterns to create expression through movement.

One of the world’s most influential dance education and professional organisations. The RAD sets global standards for exams in classical ballet.

Acro Dance is an art form specifically for dancers. Acro has softer, more lyrical looking lines, with the emphasis being on lengthening “through” the tricks and holding pretty balances with interesting variations. In Acro, we teach our students to dance into and out of Acro tricks, with minimal obvious “prep” before and after a trick. Despite being technically difficult to execute, acrobatic tricks are meant to blend in seamlessly with dance steps, providing an extra level of excitement and flair to dance choreography.
