The Ballet Performance Course is designed for dancers with experience at the Ballet Improver to Elementary/Intermediate level and above, who are ready to take their artistry beyond the studio and onto the stage. This course is ideal for those looking to build upon their classical ballet foundation while developing the stagecraft, confidence, and expression required for live performance.
If you're seeking more than just a class—if you're ready to step into the spotlight and explore the expressive, theatrical side of ballet—this course offers a unique opportunity to do just that. With a focus on performance technique, musicality, and ensemble work, it bridges the gap between training and the exhilaration of live production.
The Ballet Performance Course aims to stage one to two full performances each year, giving participants the invaluable experience of preparing for and performing in professionally produced shows. This is your chance to evolve as a dancer, grow as a performer, and bring ballet to life before an audience.
