Technique class

In this weekly class, for all dancers age 10 and over, we work on strengthening, conditioning, fitness, and our ballet and contemporary dance techniques.  It's a lot more fun than it sounds - the dancers all love it!  We have lots of props and equipment that we use and we're always coming up with crazy challenges to extend our capabilities!

Choreography

We have a series of lessons - usually in the run up to a show, where dancers learn choreography techniques, find out about the ingredients of a good dance routine, and they work in pairs, small groups or even solos to produce their own pieces for the show.  Our senior dancers and teachers are skilled in a huge range of styles and genres, so we can encourage all of our dancers to explore a wide variety of choreography.

Excel Dance
Age 10-14

Excel Dance is a fast paced, energetic group,  they cover many different dance styles and genres, and also enjoy working on their own choreography too. They perform regularly in shows, competitions and dance challenge events, and are always looking for a new adventure or opportunity!  Some of them are now Junior Dance Leaders, helping with younger classes. They choose their focus and are involved in all of our decisions.

Pointe ballet
Age 13+

Our senior girls, who have lots of experience in ballet, have their own Saturday morning pointe class, with lots of space, wall mirrors, and the use of our ballet barres. They work on core strength, advanced technique and conditioning.  The emphasis is on correct and safe technique appropriate to the dancers' needs, which is Fiona's particular focus and area of expertise. 

Senior Tap

An energetic 30 minute senior tap class on Saturday mornings keeps the older dancers on their toes! Working on advanced steps, interesting rhythms, and a variety of tap genres, from musical theatre to street tap, and everything in between! 

There will be a new senior tap class starting in January 2024. 

Adult tap
class
Adult Ballet Fit  

Lots of chat, fun and friendship in the adult tap class, who meet on Monday evenings after the children are in bed.  Beginners and new members are always welcome.  

Did you learn ballet as a child and wish you could do it again? Always wanted to learn ballet?  Alongside the adult tap class, there is a fitness based ballet group, which has been running for three years and we work at a manageable pace on the NATD ballet fit syllabus.  Beginners and new members are welcome, no matter what your age or ability.  Each grade takes approximately 10 weeks to complete.
