CLASSICAL BALLET is a carefully structured method of dance which develops a deep understanding of posture, placement and dance movement. It is a theatrical art enabling deep creative expression.

Students are also able to take part in special classes throughout the year and may be eligible to compete in state, national and international competitions.
