Ballet for Everybody offers a friendly and inclusive space to explore classical ballet & experience the joy of dancing to beautiful music.
Whether you've always dreamed of learning ballet or are simply curious to try it, you're warmly welcome.
What you'll experience
Ballet seamlessly brings together music, movement and expression. It also nourishes physical and mental wellbeing.
In Ballet for Everybody classes, you'll be guided to:
Understand the foundations of classical ballet, including posture, alignment & graceful movement
Develop core strength, improve flexibility and coordination
Experience the pleasure of connecting breath, movement and music
Each class follows the structure of a regular ballet class: gentle warm-ups at the barre & exercises in the centre. Exercises may be adapted to enable participants of all abilities to participate.
We revisit familiar exercises each week & explore new elements gradually. With just 6–8 participants per class, you'll enjoy attentive & personalised guidance.

A note from me
I've long wanted to create a welcoming space where adults from all walks of life can discover ballet on their own terms.
I'm delighted that the time has finally come!
I first started learning ballet at 21, alongside children a third of my age! Adult beginner classes were rare back then, and I often felt I'd snuck into a space that wasn't quite made for me.
Through my years as both an adult ballet learner and teacher, I've come to appreciate that ballet offers much more than physical benefits. It can be a nourishing lifelong practice, bringing together the joy of movement, the pleasure of progress & making friends along the way.
