There is a £25 enrolment/annual membership fee per child (capped at £55 for families with 3+ children) paid on enrolment and then in September each year. This helps towards annual costs such as licences and insurance, whilst keeping our class costs low. It also gives our customers benefits such as access to our second hand uniform list and discounted theatre tickets.
Class costs are as follows, paid every 2 terms via BACS.
30-minute classes - £5 per class
45-minute classes - £6 per class
1-hour classes - £7.50 per class

Class descriptions
Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) Ballet Classes
The RAD offers an internationally-recognised portfolio of examinations and assessments designed to encourage, motivate and reward students of all ages and abilities. These syllabus classes provide a structure for our students to progress their learning and achievement in dance.
Pre-school Ballet
A fun and lively dance class for 3-4 year-olds that uses props, storytelling and imagination to develop physical movement and encourage creativity, expression and confidence. The perfect foundation for the RAD ballet syllabus.
Contemporary Dance
Our Contemporary Dance class is the perfect way to start the weekend, encouraging dancers to connect with the music, use their creativity, and let go! Designed for teens with prior dance experience, the class builds on contemporary foundations, technique, and performance skills, offering both challenge and growth.
Beginners Jazz Dance (Teens & Adults)
Our high-energy class for teens and adults is perfect for beginners and focuses on building strong dance technique, improving strength and flexibility, and developing musicality - all set to upbeat tunes that will keep you grooving. No prior dance experience is needed.
Strengthening/PBT Class
This class alternates between Pointe Strengthening and Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT), a revolutionary programme that uses fit balls and resistance bands to help train muscle memory and build strength.
Pointe Class
A dedicated pointe work class for our senior students to build up their strength and confidence in pointe work. This is an invitation only class for those in Grade 4 and above attending multiple classes a week and who have gained the strength required to dance on pointe.
Private lessons
Private one to one classes for children are available at a cost of £25 per 30-minute session (£50 for 1-hour or £37.50 for 45 minutes). These are ideal for beginners to ballet or those with specific aims such as improving knowledge of an RAD syllabus or developing muscle strength and fitness through progressing ballet technique (PBT) exercises.
