A dance uniform is important and helps our dancers to move safely whilst allowing the teacher to see body alignment making it easier to correct posture and improve technique. Uniforms also promote discipline, equality and a sense of belonging.
The size guide on the store site is not an accurate guide. We recommend a size 00 for ages 1-2, a size 0 for ages 2-3 and a size 1 for a taller 3-4 year old. The ballet shoes we stock on our store come up two sizes larger than your childs current shoes size.
Your teacher has one of each size in class so do ask to try on before ordering for a perfect fit.



In our Pre School Ballet classes we start introducing a little more ballet technique preparing our dancers for The Royal Academy of Dancing Pre Primary syllabus which they will study when they start primary school. The syllabus we follow is still very much learning through imaginative dance and storytelling but encourages the finer motor skills required for Ballet as they grow.
Reception and above
Our after school classes are for children in school Years Reception & above.
The focus in our school age classes is first and foremost that every child continues to adore coming to Ballet. Starting at school is tough for most of our ballerinas so although we do introduce the Royal Academy of Dance syllabus in Reception year, our focus remains on enjoyment and building confidence, the essential building blocks to ensure every child develops a love of Dance as they grow.
As our students journey progresses as they grow, we introduce different genres of Dance and all have the opportunity to perform on stage every year.
At the end of each academic year we will hold assessments for our school age children where they will show what they have learned to a professional within the Dance industry and they will all earn their certificate and medal in the grade they have been studying before moving up into the next grade in the new academic year.
All of our classes are invoiced half termly at £8 per class.
