Content and level

Our Improvers class is for those who have already completed Absolute Beginners or are returning to ballet and want reminding of the basics.

Classes are designed to improve technique, develop ballet vocabulary and increase confidence. Building on the basics, classes introduce preparation for turns (pirouettes), jumps (allegro), develop arm movements (port de bras) and explore artistry and musicality.

Improvers is open to anyone aged over 18 and there is no upper age limit. If you have never danced with us before or would like to move into this level, we recommend taking one of the final classes of the Summer term as a taster ahead of booking the full Autumn term.

Please see full TERMS AND CONDITIONS here.

BALLETACTIVE Participants who book for the whole term are entitled to 50% off our online platform BalletActive to continue training whenever, wherever! After you have booked, you will receive an email containing your discount code. For questions please contact info@ballet.org.uk.

Please note that classes are not refundable: if you cannot attend class one week, we are unable to offer a refund or credit. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to welcoming you in our studios soon.
