A beginner level class for dancers with very little or no experience of beginner ballet vocabulary and steps. This weekly class will build on your understanding of the foundations of the ballet technique with beginner level exercises to start building your balance, strength, and coordination in a friendly environment.
For dancers with beginner experience in ballet who are looking for the next step to further their technique through a gentle progressive class. The weekly sessions will focus on your balance, strength and coordination improving your technique and understanding of the ballet principles.
For improver level dancers with experience in ballet who are looking for a slightly more challenging class. Dancers will continue to work on the foundations of balance, strength and coordination, whilst working on more challenging and varied class exercises.
Our weekly online class is for improver level dancers. The class will focus on barre work, strengthening and improving the ballet principles. The sessions are led from our studios in Leeds with exercises being created with smaller spaces in mind, so dancers can join us comfortably from their own home!
