Students will study the fundamentals of both classical ballet & jazz in this combined one hour lesson. Consisting of barre work, across the floor skills & combination steps, this class is the ideal foundation for every dancer.
Educating students in correct, safe technique & alignment from an early age is imperative to prevent injuries in young bodies. We incorporate Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT) into all classical ballet training, while following the A.T.O.D syllabus for ballet & jazz.

Troupe
New in 2022!
Troupe
Students who display dedication & hard work in their lessons are invited to join the troupe team. While Jazz/Ballet plus Conditioning are the only prerequisite classes for year 3-5 troupe students, additional weekly classes such as Exams, Tap or Hip Hop are ideal for further advancing skills. The more classes children participate in weekly, the faster they will become strong dancers & performers.
Troupe members attend a specific Troupe Lesson every week to learn & perfect a routine specifically for competitions.
Troupe members must be available 6-7 weekends per year to attend competitions & performances. Dates are given at the start of the year (pending the organisation of each eisteddfod) to provide as much notice as possible.
